Not a straight shot by any definition. Running through the \u201cWild Hogs\u201d town of Madrid, you\u2019ll experience plenty of twists and turns on both sides of Madrid and as you enter Cedar Crest, you\u2019ll want to be in the left lane and look for the green roof that you\u2019ll see before you see the Ribs Sign.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/4NCakBmyk\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/26C0CE8C-AED9-40BA-AC9B-C14022284459.png\"><strong>Cuba! Really? Well, sort of\u2026<\/strong><\/a><br \/>Yes, you can tell your friends you rode your Harley to Cuba, but it will be your choice if you add New Mexico to the destination. It says 4 hours and 17 minutes, but that only works if you don\u2019t stop and you will stop, repeatedly. Lunch at el Brunos? Look left as you ride through Cuba and you\u2019ll see the sign.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/cYuK1YbJu\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/0E4C8DF5-FACF-4CDB-B3EC-7029D2A0C713.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Another Route to Cuba? Sure, why not\u2026<\/a><br \/><\/strong>OK, el Brunos is worth a second, shorter ride to get there. Hey, I like the place! This one takes you to Bodes General Store, which is a great place to top off your tank with\u00a0<strong>pure gasoline, no ethanol!<\/strong>\u00a0Go a little farther to route 96 and follow that to Cuba!\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/lYfV2NDQn\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/A910B1FE-5846-4F93-84FA-B074B491553B.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Taos Loop Route<\/strong><\/a><br \/>This ride takes you through the High Road to Taos again, but it\u2019s worth it. Going to Taos is a must do if you\u2019ve brought your spouse, partner, whatever. The stated time on the ride is almost a joke here with the shops and restaurants in Taos.

Yikes!<\/strong><\/a><br \/>This is one of my favorite rides. If you\u2019re a fan of rural, this could be considered super rural. Some of the towns shown on the map are \u201cdon\u2019t blink\u201d towns. Google maps says 5 hours 35 minutes, but what fun is that. Roy, NM is a very small town that is a must stop on this ride. Just the photo ops alone are worth it. And since Mosquero has a restaurant, you may want to stop there. The turn in Roy will take you into the Canadian River Valley. What a nice place to stop for pictures. This route is one where watching your gas levels is a must. You\u2019ve been warned!\u00a0<strong>Update: There now is gas in Roy. Regular grade only, but that\u2019s better than running out of gas, right?\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/4Y6sgO2Qu\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/FEE133E9-1B87-4AA0-BAB7-3A1BA27EF698.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Las Vegas, NM and Back to Santa Fe Harley the Long Way.<\/strong><\/a><br \/>OK, I do an abbreviated version of this route frequently. I bank in Las Vegas and head to Santa Fe Harley on this route afterwards. Quite a bit of highway, but if you can work your way down to NM Route 60, which is south of I-40, it adds interest to the posted route. Either way, both routes are pretty good.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/XB_Mps2yZ\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/santafehog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Screen-Shot-2018-06-27-at-7.06.08-PM.png\"><strong>A Great <\/strong><\/a><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/4BACB916-153C-495E-84FD-98B4615FFCFE.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Restaurant<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/santafehog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Screen-Shot-2018-06-27-at-7.06.08-PM.png\"><strong> Ride\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><br \/>This is a really good restaurant with a huge paved parking lot. La Cocina Restaurant is a really nice place to eat. Local cuisine and other options with less heat are both offered in this restaurant. Their address is:\u00a0La Cocina Restaurant, 415 W Santa Clara Bridge Rd, Espa\u00f1ola. Stick it in your GPS if you need too. I like to take the 502 turn off to 30 and you bypass about 6 stoplights.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/4B-UZsmQn\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/4BACB916-153C-495E-84FD-98B4615FFCFE.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Something Different . . .\u00a0<\/a><br \/><\/strong>. . . but geared to travelers that are here from gun free areas that wish to experience shooting a firearm. MAGS Indoor Shooting Range in Moriarty, NM. They have gun rentals and offer you a chance to fire full-automatic guns if that\u2019s your dream. This addition was added because many of SFHD\u2019s visitors actually used to do this at a Santa Fe gun shop that has since closed. MAGS will provide basic gun training and a range safety official to ensure safety.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/lBJHkODJk\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/888AAF70-7D81-4F5D-9F80-59A40B67B6DF.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>The Secret City Ride!<\/strong><\/a><br \/>Los Alamos, the Secret City, is no longer a secret, but the security up there is very much in evidence still.

If you plan to explore the areas around Los Alamos, you should know that certain areas still require you to present identification.

The first is the High Country Restaurant and Saloon in Chama, with the second being Kip\u2019s Grill in Pagosa Springs.

It takes you through some amazing scenery and skirts the bottom of Taos. High desert vistas and mountain pine forests are just some of what you\u2019ll see. Once there, the best food can be found at ZEB\u2019S.\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/api\/gpx?rideId=04765a2f-1f9b-4491-86ba-a53563659784&amp;version=2\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/the-glen-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/090A55E3-ED78-42EB-92B1-26B7B4D6BE23.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wicked West HD to Abiquiu to El Rito to Ojo Caliente and then back to WWHD<\/a><\/strong><br \/>A ride to Bodes in Abiquiu require a top off with their non-ethanol premium grade of gas. Why? I don\u2019t know, my bike runs great on all the gas sold in this state, but I do it anyway. All the bikers do it. Anyway once you top off and shop the entire store, and you have to do it, backtrack a few miles to NM 554 which will take you to the charming village of el Rito. Stop and wander a bit. 554 terminates at NM 111, take a right towards Santa Fe &amp; Ojo Caliente Spa &amp; Resort. Great place for lunch! When you come back to 285, hang a left and it will take you back to SFHD.\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.harley-davidson.com\/share\/rides\/4Nq1BX22Z\">GPX File.<\/a><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rides from Santa Fe Looking for some rides when you\u2019re in the Santa Fe area?
