***DOCUMENTATION IN PROGRESS

After leaving California Sunday, May 26th 2024 my girlfriend Elisa and I drove a rental car to New Mexico. We dropped off the rental car in El Paso, TX and then ubered to Columbus, NM. On day one, we biked 3 miles south into Mexico and officially started our trip!

We rode a Canyon Grizl and a handmade custom frame built and assembled by me in 2 rough weeks
