Lunch
Pacific Ocean
Hotel Lobby

Good day/morning Brad and I are hanging out in the hotel lobby getting a late start to the day. We had a very long 700 plus km ride yesterday. That isn't anything to long, but with 6 toll booths, winding high mountains, rock avalanches, fuel stations and a intense ride through Mexico city we are a little tardy getting on the road this morning. We really had a cross section of Mexico today. From the sprawling city of Mexico city that took us over an hour to get through doing 80 km/hr, to cactus laden mountains to jungle tropics. What a [View Full Entry]

Down time
Big Bridges
Great Food

Good Day/Morning/Evening All, **Right now they've turned the lights off in the mall and we are being asked to leave (I think) we have more videos and pictures they just take too long to down load**** Brad and I are at an internet cafe at a mall in Queretaro with some very loud spanish music playing. We ended up staying in a really rough place last night in a hotel bus stop. We were warned of a double murder up the road the night before so we stayed stealth. Employed all the standard Reynolds tricks. We left there and made our [View Full Entry]

Bull on the Ridge
Flooding
Attracting a crowd

Hello All, Were settled in a nice hotel in Chihuahua, named after the dog or vica versa. We've had a long couple of days. We brought our bikes into Edge Kawasaki yesterday for a tune up and and service. We were taken care of very well by George the "Flying Taco". "The Flying Taco" gave us some great complimentry shirts and swag, as well as some very good deals. Thanks Edge Kawasaki in El Paso, a good experience all around. We then lightly planned our route for the morning, not without a final stop at Wal Mart of course to get [View Full Entry]

George "The Flying Taco"
Mexico
Policia

Today saw us rise bright eyed and rested in the town of Cortez , Colorado. We left the motel at 6:30am and decided to blast off right away which served us well. We hit the New Mexico border just as the sun was rising and cruised right into the Navajo reservation. The view was incredible, the crowning jewel being ship's rock, a Massive pillar of stone. Quick fuel ups for us today and not much picture time at all. Blane was courageous enough to film while riding so have some "on the fly footage". At our second stop we met [View Full Entry]

Moab North America » United States » Colorado » Cortez
When we left Ogden Utah this morning we were treated to 4 lanes of rush hour heading South. They do it up in style here and we settled into the HOV lane at 130 KPH . Lots of cars moving past us in the fast lane to our right but these guys are the most courteous drivers. They actually move out of the way and get the same treatment in return. What a concept. The weather was great and the scenery and roads turned interesting once we hit US #6, lots of twists and turns and absolutely incredible scenery that segued [View Full Entry]

My Dad (Ray), Brother (Brad) and I are heading to Central America on KLR 650 motorcycles. We will leave from Abbotsford. This will be a 15,000 km trip full of adventure, long days and new places. There is no schedule, just a route and about 40 +days to play with. We will travel through the following countries: USA, Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicurauga, Costa Rica and Panama and back again in roughly that order. Brad heads down from Grande Prairie Alberta on his new KLR 650 (with new Teton Canyon Cut Panniers) and a fist full of oil money [View Full Entry]
