TD NOBO Shuttle from El Paso

[fastmtnbiker33w]

Myself and a buddy here in El Paso are offering up our services for a shuttle from El Paso to Antelope Wells for you north bounders.  I can carry 4 people and bikes quite comfortably and he could do 3.  If we get more inquiries, we'll hit up our local shop to see if we can use their van. 

I'll also offer up host housing with my one guest room and maybe my camper if it's not too hot.  I can do cots in the living room if there are more inquiries.  I won't speak directly for my buddy, but he's a TD fan and would probably offer up host housing as well. 

I live less than a 15 min drive to the airport and would be happy to pick people up to save on the ridiculous taxi rates and possible death by riding your bike from our airport to an affordable hotel.

Depending on what time people would want to start, we could leave El Paso either on the afternoon of June 13 and camp at the border, or leave at the butt crack of dawn on the 14th to get everybody out there on time....6 am??  8 am???

Feel free email me at fastmtnbiker@hotmail.com or to call me at 915-471-9232.

Hey Big Dave,
Just wanted to say thank you for the offer, we have a great community here on this site. There is three of us from Yukon going north for TD this year and we know how hard it is to get to Antelope Wells. We are flying to Phoenix and it took almost three weeks of email and phone call. Were all set, but i hope someone takes you up on your offer, its fun to met fellow bikepackers. Can you make sure it won't be too hot while were in New Mexico
See you at the start
Mario

I'm usually out of here way before then.  My high school's graduation isn't until the 15th this year.  Usually it's much earlier and I can boogie out of this heat and be in Colorado by the 10th.  Not this year.

FYI.....I have only had one northbounder contact me about a shuttle to Antelope Wells from El Paso.....and he's a maybe.  I'm shutting down the southbound service since I've got 3 volunteers coordinating with 8 riders right now.
