Cloudcroft, NM is a hidden gen no one ever talks about. I would go up there on my sportbike when I lived in El Paso, and I would also stay the weekend with my road bike. Some serious riding, lots of cat 1 and 2 climbs. Check out the routes on map my ride, it's no joke. There's MTB trails as well. Really nice cottages you can rent, beautiful place, it has it all. If something happened and I had no family I would move there.
