We will re-trace the over 125-mile route Billy the Kid took during his trek to Fort Sumner, New Mexico, after his infamous escape on April 28th, 1881, from the County Courthouse jail in Lincoln, New Mexico, USA.

This year we'll continue with our novel twist and backtrack the trail, leaving Fort Sumner on May 9th. and arriving in Lincoln on May 17th. 
On this ride, you will traverse over mountains, high desert grasslands, and through the Pecos River as we hear stories of Billy the Kid.
