The link to today's route and statistics is found here . Unfortunately an accident occurred today in Hatch, NM.  No one was injured, but there was major damage to Trans-America Cycling equipment.  Here is an accounting of the incident from Larry of TAC. "It’s all about the adventure! An interesting thing happened on the way to Las Cruces, New Mexico. While properly parked on the side of the road in Hatch, a semi-truck ran into the back of our trailer and pushed my truck and the Trans-America Cycling trailer into a parked car on the opposite side of the street. Luckily, no one was in either of the parked cars.  Our trailer was destroyed and my pickup is no longer driveable.  Many of the team pitched in and helped move luggage and supplies from the trailer to another support vehicle.  We have a great team! No one was hurt and the tour will go on as planned.  We won’t let a minor inconvenience stop us!" Trailer totaled and probably truck too
