Our most immersive Northern New Mexico adventure of 2026 takes us into Rio Arriba — Spanish for “Upper River.” Historically, the name described the rugged northern country along the upper Rio Grande: a place shaped by mountains, rivers, isolation, deep culture and an independent spirit. It’s hard to imagine a better setting for an adventure.
We begin in Bernalillo and climb into the Jemez Mountains, then work our way north through the red-rock country of Abiquiu and into the river valleys surrounding Chama. By day, we ride remote backroads, forgotten trails and challenging sections of the New Mexico BDR, crossing some of the most spectacular and varied terrain in the Land of Enchantment. Expect sweeping views, dramatic changes in elevation and landscape, and plenty of opportunities to encounter Northern New Mexico wildlife throughout the ride. Each day’s route is designed to cover less than a tank of fuel, with planned fuel stops along the way.
For lunch, we’ll stop on the trail or at iconic local spots, making the food, towns and landscapes of Northern New Mexico part of the experience rather than simply something we ride past.
By evening, the bikes are parked and the campfire is burning. Grab a drink, watch the sun disappear behind the mountains and let our support crew take care of the rest. You’ll ride light each day while our support truck carries your luggage and camp gear, assists with camp setup, provides water and useful camp supplies, and keeps support close at hand. We prepare hot breakfasts and dinners at camp and even bring a backup motorcycle in case somebody’s trip tries to end early.
This isn’t a big rally. It’s a small group sharing three days in a remarkable corner of New Mexico — riding hard, eating well, sitting around the fire and coming home with a few stories worth keeping.
Small group. Big enchantment.
