From the last few days

I'm doing this backwards because I'm really tired.
we travelled 350 km today.
70km of that was hands down the best road I have ever ridden.
for the entire distance, there was maybe 2 klicks that were straight.
It was an hour of peg scraping aweswome. Left and right camber corners stacked like it was a dream.
Sadly I didn't get a single photo of the road. There were absolutley no shoulders or anywhere to turn off, straight jungle on both sides.
Mex 70 between Ciudad Victoria and Soto La Marina.
Check it.


Self portrait just after leaving our hotel.
We rode trough orange orhards.
there were stands at the side of the road for miles selling oranges.


I bought a bag of oranges from this guy.
10 pesos got us a 10 lb. bag of fantastic oranges.
He was a total salesman. Laughed alot and seemed really happy.

the next lot of photos are from the Bioparque Estrella.
About an hour away frfom Monterrey, its an outdoor zoo that features a 'get up close' safari.
And yes, we got close. For 10 pesos each, we bought cups of food for the animals.


This old giraffe was super hot for the food Laura had and as such, every one on the bus ran to see the Giraffe.








This camel went right for this poor lady. She ended up losing the whole cup.

That's all. tonight were are in a pretty swanky place in Tampico.

My bike is running great. And despite the hellishly bumpy roads and me jumping 8 inch curbs, nothing has fallen off. I went over the bike tip to tail and tightened everything, including adjusting the chain. It's blowing a bit more oil than I'd like but so it goes.
That's all. Tomorrow we go to the beach and maybe we'll stay in Tampico another night or maybe move down the coast some more.
