Falling For Santa Fe, The City Different with Host Lisa Keating
Join us in The City Different as we discover some of the unique qualities that make Santa Fe, New Mexico a world class destination. One of the first things that we noticed as we approached Santa Fe from the south was the stunning setting of the city at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo mountains. After driving through Death Valley in California and across Arizona and most of New Mexico, there is a stark contrast in terrain coming into Santa Fe. The highest state capitol in the United States, at an elevation of 7,199 feet above sea level, Santa Fe is higher than Denver, Colorado, The Mile High City.
Before this trip, I thought of Santa Fe as a dusty, old desert town built around a central plaza attractive to retirees and history buffs. While adobes are still the prevailing architectural style, I'm much more aware of the mountain town feel that I imagine when I think of places like Sonora in California or Boulder, Colorado. And the robust range of physical activities that Santa Fe offers calls for youth, vigor and a passion for movement. Sure you can come and stroll around the square and basque in the small town feel, shop for crafts and enjoy a burger topped with chile and cheese, but you can also hike, skate, mountain bike, forage for Chanterelles, ski, purchase Fine Art, take in museums, the opera, go ballooning or wine tasting.
The next thing you'll notice about Santa Fe is an ease, a feeling of welcome, of returning. It's palpable and ephemeral, like the light that plays on the land. There is a quality that can't quite be put into words. A pervasive feeling of appreciation for beauty and nature, an energy that the very land and sky are part of some big cosmic show - an energy that attracted Native Americans centuries ago and has continued to call artists like Georgia O'Keefe, writers like D.H. Lawrence, George R.R. Martin, Hollywood stars, like Gene Hackman, Shirley MacLaine and notable writer and philanthropist Forrest Fenn who has literally hidden a treasure chest in the area.

Route 66 Guided Motorcycle Tour: Santa Fe, NM - Gallup, NM
Hear what EagleRider's Tour Expert, Erik, loves about Day 9 of riding the Route 66 Guided Tour. Full Tour Route:
What happens on this day of the Tour?
This morning you head south, down to Albuquerque, New Mexico’s largest city, with a third of the state’s population. Albuquerque is sprawling at the heart of New Mexico, where the main east - west road and rail routes cross both the Rio Grande and the old road south to Mexico. You cross the Rio Grande and head west – out into the open country and the hues of the Navajo wilderness. You are skirting mesas and bluffs on into Laguna. Further on ride through Grants and along Cibola National Forest towards the famous Route 66 town of Gallup – an old railroad town and Indian stronghold. Enjoy your stay tonight with a host of fellow riders from around the world at one of the many biker friendly hotels in Gallup.
Albuquerque bike share looks to expand
Downtown pilot bike share program successful so far.

NM True TV - Gallup Mountain Biking
This Route 66 adventure is off the pavement. Gallup and the surrounding area offer mountain biking opportunities notable for both quality and quantity. The landscape and scenery make all of that pedaling worthwhile.
Albuquerque considers possible 'rail trail' path along downtown railroad
The city is taking a serious look at building some new routes to get across and even walk alongside the railroad tracks with a downtown rail trail. Story on KRQE.com:
Riding Dolores Canyon Gateway Colorado
Enjoy riding through Delores Canyon in the beautiful red rock south of Gateway, Colorado, on Colo Hwy 141. I'm on my motorcycle and am hand-holding the camera, which accounts for some of the jitter. I love this canyon! Not only is it beautiful, but the road is a dream.
Bicycling around Denver.mpg
A test video with a prosumer camera. Better quality than I thought but the video is shaky as hell because I was wearing it around my neck with straps and no stabilizers.
