If you start walking now, you might get to the centerline on time. And without unnecessary carbon emissions!

So only a few hours drive to the centerline. Which is worth the
effort, even for this type of eclipse.

I'll drive, thank you. Aside from being a week long bike trip, there's
also the problem of 50 pounds or more of astronomical imaging
equipment! And the possibility of dangerous heat.

It's probably cloudy too?
So, its waste of time, energy, gas and money.

I'll be heading down to central New Mexico, so the odds are sunny
conditions. If it looks like something is coming, I may look elsewhere
along the path, from SW Colorado down through NM. If there's a system
over the whole area, I'll pass on the trip. Forecast looks good,
though.

Agreed, odds are good you'll have a clear sky along that track
