The two handed gear changing technique works, which is just as well, because it goes without saying that life would be difficult otherwise! The only other problem that I had today, was that my rear quick release somehow came open as I was riding along. Luckily I noticed it before anything bad happened though. The cycling seemed a bit of a chore today, and it was hot as usual at 30 degrees, although humidity was down to 66%, which was nice. I also seemed to have messed up where I was heading for today., in part due to my inadequate maps, but mostly due to bad research. In my mind I was heading to San Marcos…. The only problem being, that’s about four days away! Instead, I stopped at Papanoa, in another 200 peso hotel. If my budget wasn’t so tight, it wouldn’t be a problem, but its starting to hurt a little now!
Jeez - I just read that back and it sounds a bit negative… need to get in a better frame of mind!
