Northern N Mex. is not unlike the Rockies of Alberta/ BC. And the road from Trinidad to TAOS - Ouch!

Since you can adjust the seat angle from let say 74 to 81, you can use either as a road bike or tri bike.

I can't imagine why you wouldn't consider one... Those are some nice bikes. If you aren't riding ultra steep, there's even more reason to consider one. (Note: this is not to say that a TF won't work if ridden steep, but I doubt very much that the geometry of the bike was designed with that in mind)

I'd say go for it. My Tri bike is a softride and I got a great deal on it, but I would love to have a TF for the road, especially if the roads are rough. The frame is plenty stiff and the weight penalty is minimal. Pedalling right over the minor road bumps and the relief that your buttocks and back will feel are all great reasons to have one.

Last year in the off season, I added a kids seat to my TF and rode it around the neighborhood...great bike for any use.
