Mountains

This shift key is sticky, i'm not going to use it anymore. i just had the best day for scenery i've had all trip. i climbed from 6400 ft to 9101 ft and then came back down to 6700 ft over the course of 55 miles or so. these mountains are beautiful, i would have made much better time if i hadn't been compelled to take so many pictures of them. words really cannot describe my experience today. anyway, now i'm safely in taos, nm, and this place has the most culture i've seen on this trip so far. i actually "blew a tire" (couldn't avoid that shift, and again for the ( and ) ) today; the rubber part of the wheel detached from the plastic. that's a lot of abuse. anyway, my new set of wheel felt great flying down the backside of whatever rocky i was on.
