Santa Fe to Gallup

Still in New Mexico.
Visited a place that has been used as a film set for so many films such as Cowboys and Jane got a Gun, Wyatt Earp, many stars have made films there.
Stopped at an old mining, small, town called Madrid which has 'Maggies', featured in Wild Hogs.
We rode through the Navajo Nation and stopped at the Trading Post. Everything in the extensive shop is made by the Navajo that live around the area.
I'm loving this ride but must admit I'm finding this latter half of the tour more interesting than the first half with regard to scenery and culture. Forests, mountains, red cliffs in the Navajo Nation which is real cowboy country, long sweeping curves, some pretty sharp, which makes for an exciting and exhilarating ride.
Just loving it.
Tomorrow - Gallup to Grand Canyon, Arizona.
