“Wild Hogs” tour February 18, 2009

If you liked the motorcycle road-trip comedy “Wild Hogs,” the Examiner.com has a listings of where you can find the real-life places showed in the film, including spots on Route 66 in Albuquerque.

All the downtown city shots were also filmed in Albuquerque, primarily along Central Avenue. The friendly biker bar is the Library Bar & Grill. It’s on Central Avenue (GPS coordinates: N35? 05.067 W106? 39.066 (WGS84)

You can see some of Albuquerque’s landmarks in the purposely blurred background. Look carefully at the photo above and you can spot a bit of the sign for Nick’s – an institution along Route 66 (also known as Central Avenue).

A slide show of the locations, which include other parts of New Mexico, is here.
