A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
I've been there. I do live in Albuquerque and find the South 14 ride to Shaffer Hotel quite relaxing and scenic. I also like riding back on the other side of the Manzano Mts.
