Default Very Large Array, Magdalena NM

Took advantage of the 68 degree weather and a day off to ride about 260 miles to check out the Very Large Array outside of Magdalena NM. They've filmed several movie shots out there. Was a nice ride, and luck was with me as I was enjoying the ride so much I lost track of the fuel and ran out of gas just as I was exiting the highway! Fortunately a gas station was downhill from the exit. :grin:

Great shots! And doesn't your bike tell you when you're low on fuel? I got down to the fuel light one day and first thing the GPS girl starts nagging at me to fuel up. She even asked what brand of gas I wanted and showed me the way. Sort of like having your wife with you, but at least you can turn the nav system off...

Don't feel bad, I don't see the pics either.

In fact I would guess most won't see them.
The links look to be in his Google Account, so not sure how he is sharing them.

On my smart phone just touched the boxes. Pics came right up. 260 miles on one tank that's good. I've seen my fuel remaining at 254 but have never pushed it that far. Beautiful someday I'll make it out there! Thanks for pics.
