Written Directions
Start at NM333/US Rte 66 North in Edgewood New Mexico. Head north on NM 344 through Cedar Grove NM and San Pedro NM and up to Golden New Mexico which is at the intersection of NM 344 and NM 14. You will see at approximately mile marker 16 there is an abrupt change in direction in the South to North route that there is a caution sign warning motorcyclists to watch their speed.
Scenery
Typical high desert type of trees and brush along the entire route. Once out of Edgewood NM there are no stop signs or stop lights making for a easy ride.
Drive Enjoyment
I give the road a rating of 3 because for a good portion of it, the road surface is a bit rough. Not rutted, and not broken or gravel, just not smooth. Of note; at approximately mile marker 16 there is an abrupt change in direction in the South to North route that there is a caution sign warning motorcyclists to watch their speed.
Tourism Opportunities
At the beginning of the route in Edgewood, there is everything you could need. Once out of Edgewood there isn't any services of any kind. At the end of the route you have a choice of left towards Cedar Crest/Sandia Park or Right towards the famous Madrid or onto Sante Fe.
