Puerto Escondido, Mexico


Day 70, Sep 10, 2013,  402km


Today started with us getting flagged down by police because they said we ran a stop light. But we never did see the darn thing.


We both pulled over but Wei was closer to the Cop and he made Wei sweat for a few moments before giving him a warning to be more careful, did someone just say horseshoe up our ass, just wait till you read the rest of this.


More nice and twisty roads today but the last four hours before we made Puerto Escondido it started to rain and I mean poring rain like some fire engine crew with all the hoses pointed at you.

Man did it come down, needless to say not a thread left dry, if you did not zipper bag it on you it was wet. And if the rain isn't enough when the trucks coming at you pass and there is about 2” of water or more on the road it makes for a small tidal wave hitting you with a wham.

This is bad enough if your in a car but on the bike it's a whole new experience, all I can say is don't ride with your mouth open. Horseshoe my ass indeed.
