We welcome the cool air after the 4000ft climb yesterday.  The heat, coupled with wind and traffic made cycling dicey. One of the gals carries a calorie burner estimate on her wrist and we are happy to report over 6000 calories burned yesterday. Although the ride in the canyon was beautiful there was no safe spot to stop and take pictures, perhaps tomorrow with the 78 miles we will be covering. Silver city is in our sights but still a couple days away.
