I mapped that out because I thought Ruidoso might be a bit far.. it is. But Ruidosa is much better. [emoji16]
I've thought about doing that loop on my XT250 but want sure about gas range. Either there are more gas stations along the way now or I miscalculated before. My range is ~125 miles plus a 1 gallon Rotopax for ~50 miles, all depending on wind speed/direction and my speed. I'm guessing you had more than 2 gallons on your WR.
Oops, yeah, that city, not the one in New Mexico. You could definitely do this ride, just plan on stopping in Presidio, Marfa, and Alpine to gas up. There isn't anything in Ruidosa. Nothing.
I have an extended tank (4.7 gallons) and didn't stop in Presidio and my fuel light came on. Even worse is that we stopped there, but I didn't get any fuel. I made it to Marfa, but my fuel light was on and I was concerned. And put gas in your rotopax. I've been on a ride where a guy had a rotopax, but didn't fill it because he didn't think it would be needed. Yep, we almost ran dry then.
Pinto Canyon Road is a nice little dirt road (the southern end).
