Routes / Geronimo Trail

« on: April 24, 2014, 02:27:30 am »

Hi
I'm planning to ride the Great Divide later in the year.  Rather than finish at Antelope Wells, I'm thinking of going to Animas NM and following the Geronimo Trail to Douglas AZ.  I gather it is about 80m so maybe it is doable in a day.  I have googled on the subject and discovered a few things but haven't come across anyone who has cycled it. Anyone done it, know about it.  Be good to hear.  Thanks  Brett

Routes / Money and access

Hi.  I'm planning to ride the Great Divide next summer.  A long way off in some ways but doing some planning.
Will be coming from New Zealand and am watching exchange rates now - currently quite good for me. Thinking of carrying money via a debit card.
My question is - do the shops and hostels at smaller towns along the route use eftpos ? Not sure if Americans use this term ( electronic point of sale ).  Swipe cards rather than cash. 

Be good to hear about this. Don't reallywant to carry too much cash.
