After chatting with El Jefe – it sounds like I will start with him on the 13 (the Thursday) In the evening and do a relatively short run from Antelope Wells to Hatchita (36 miles). We spend the night at the Hatchia bike ranch. And do a much more reasonable to Day 1 from there to Silver City.
This…. This is a good idea. Starting off a bit slow is much better. Antelope Wells is at 4,665 feet of elevation. Roughly 4,300 feet higher than where I spend most of my time. And yeah, I’ve done 120 mile days before… At sea level. Starting slow is a good plan. Hooray Day Zero.
