Mon-Wed transition and travel

Monday to Wednesday have been travel, transition, and fun time days as we prepare for our next NRC stage race, Joe Martin Stage Race, in AR.
We packed our bags and packed our van on Monday morning and hit the road after saying goodbye to Bob and Eileen (our hosts). The road out of Silver City took us through some beautiful mountain ranges and we struck out across country after dropping off mama Leece for her flight from Albuquerque and making a burrito stop there.
A couple driving shifts and hundreds of miles of flatland later, we reached our destination for the day, Amarillo, Texas. Our travel continued early the next morning and we reached Fayetteville, AR by early afternoon, in time to go for a spin and have an extended coffee stop.
Today we drove to the time trial course and rode it few times. It's an 8-9 min hill climb with an average gradient of 6.8%.
