We’re in the home stretch of a journey where we’ve swung for the fences…and I simply don’t want to stop riding with Holly. We’ve settled into such an easy routine these past five weeks: up relatively early, find breakfast, pack the bike,...

Hey guys! I know that you have all suffered gravely at the lack of my blogs (sorry 😉 ) but again, I have been so busy with everything that’s been happening. For example, a few days ago at the border of Honduras and Nicaragua an elderly man with one leg came up...

Wind. Again the wind. I’d like to say the sound of it awoke me just now in this tiny hostel in Laguna Bacalar, México but in reality, nothing that simple or soothing pulls you from slumber here. It always seems to be the roosters first, then the insulted dogs,...

Hi guys! Yesterday was absolutely amazing. We left the hotel and rode in the rain with Jesús around 9:15 so we could meet Moe (my Japanese friend) at the restaurant at 9:30. When we arrived we had breakfast (I had fruit, yogurt and granola), met Moe and her mother...
