Default Las Cruces?

My wife and I are riding over to Las Cruces next week for a few days. Haven't been there since I was a kid. Anything we shouldn't miss?

I havn't been there for a few years but if I reember it was a place to stop before I went Elpaso. Not much to offer. Well..... On the other side of the mountian you have White sands missle range. Also have the white sands park closer to Alamogordo. That is interesting to see.

Thanks. Just got back yesterday and had a nice time. Saturday we took the back way up to Hillsboro which was a decent ride. Wanted to ride over to Silver City but ran out of time.

If you didn't take the road from Hillsboro to Silver City, you really missed a great ride.

Sorry I missed your post. I have been out of town since mid July. There are many great places to see while in the area. Based upon your other post it looks like you saw a few places. If you are back in the area again give me a shout and I will give you some pointers.
