This bike touring blog post covers the day's ride from Cuyutlan to Ticla in Mexico. Part of my PanAmerican Highway bike touring adventure.
Cycling from Cuyutlan
(Blog post written January 15th 2010)
Initially, I thought that someone had slipped some low grade acid into my morning water. First, I was served by a transvestite in a service station, and then I was passed by a guy on a moped wearing a genuine World War 2 German storm trooper helmet.
Things soon settled down though, and the miles started to fly by. It seemed that everybody I passed wanted to say hi or to wave. The road was flat, and I was able to get down over the handlebars and really pound some miles out.
I was aiming for an RV park called Rancho Burganvillas that I had read someone had stayed in, but it was closed. This meant pushing on further, and by the time I had reached Ticla, I had clocked up over 130kms. 40 pesos to camp though, so it was all cool!
