Very nice road, one of my favorites, peaceful ride in the Rockies, a few twisties near Cloudcroft Village, nice sweepers along the way, all through Mescalero Apache Indian reservation. Awesome ride to Ruidoso. Best route from South to North

Fantastic ride! Twisty roads in good shape and places to stop, eat and shop. Pretty much year round riding fun.

Very nice route, which can be turned into a loop by passing through Tularosa, to visit the pistachio farms and wineries. The ride from Cloudcroft to Alamogordo is very nice, but tends to leave you stuck behind an RV. Better on the uphill, because of some short passing lanes on the uphill. Very nice brew pub in Cloudcroft, or on weekends get in the huge line at the barbeque joint. Don't forget your rain gear. In summer you can get caught in surprise storm, and in even in summer you may be surprised how cold it can be in Cloudcroft, especially before noon. Its 9000 feet, making it a perfect escape from the desert heat. But sometimes, more than you may have expected.
