Day 22: El Paso to Van Horn 116.7


Odo 3653.0

I started out pretty early, and rode thru a lot of agricultural land.
There are many pecan orchards from the Las Cruces area to far east of
El Paso. I'm making good time because of a favorable tailwind, and I
get to the day's goal, Sierra Blanca at around 3:40. The wind is
actually getting stronger, so I decide to try for Van Horn, which is
about 36 miles farther down I10. I get there a little after 5. I
checkin to a rameda limited. The limited seemed to refer to
age-induced inelegence, but it is comfy and functional, and serves
real scrambled eggs rather than the synthetic ones the holiday inn
express had.
