Good times in Mexico - Thank You Peter and crew!
Here's a few pics from this past weekend. Had a great time and met a bunch of really great guys. The routes (really the whole trip) exceeded my expectations.
Highlights for me personally:
- Asada at El Pueblito
- A cold Modelo at the top, at Laguna Sanchez
- An hour or more of THE finest twisty black-top on the second half of the Gold Standard
- The recovery of Kevin's strom (and slicing open a sidewall on the recovery truck, then watching Carlos navigate the canyon with the mini spare)
- Cobblestone Switchbacks between Los Cedritos and El Tunal
- Riding the twisties back from Los Lirios in the dark
- But my greatest experience was ripping 2-Up through Los Alamos Canyon with Kevin on the DRZ, probably the most fun I've had on a bike
Thanks to Ben for securing the recovery truck for Kevin's bike, and to Rodd and others for advancing his bike along the canyon as far as it would go, and to all the others that assisted.
Also, thanks to Thomas for posting on Wednesday the maps for navigating the Permitting and Inspections facility as you cross the border. That was timely as we had no clue and received that post right as we pulled up to the facility.
I only have a few pictures from days 1 & 2, as my phone (and the other 2000 pictures) are somewhere in Los Alamos Canyon. If you find it, your $100USD reward is tucked inside the phone case. :- )
Can't wait for more Mexico.
