Since Andy is working on his “War and Peace” we’re a little behind on the blogging. I’ll try to give a little update as to where we are in the world without giving away the plot.

We’re currently outside Mexico City at the Teotihuacán pyramids.

We’re going to check them out tomorrow before we head south-west to Acapulco where we think we’ll hang out for a day and  then head south along the pacific coast to Guatemala.

It has been a great ride so far but we’ve spent a lot of time on the road so we’re tired. We spent a day and a half in Guadalajara which we needed to recharge, we even had time to play some caps.

The ride through Baja California was very beautiful and the roads there are perfect for a motorcycle trip, I’ve never ridden so many miles of twisties in one go… simply awesome!

The ride from Mazatlán to Guadalajara was beautiful as well but it was m,ostly boring because we stayed on the toll-roads which are, in a word, straight. There were some sweepers coming off some mountains.

Today we rode from Guadalajara to Mexico City half on toll-roads and the rest on back-roads. The back-roads were awesome with tons of switchbacks with huge potholes, very exciting! After almost 11 hours in the saddle we’re beat and going to get some dinner.

Early tomorrow morning we’re checking out the pyramids and then we head for the coast for some margaritas and shrimp!
