Road from Puerto Soley to La Cruz, Costa Rica

This photo, like many others, is not really representational. Most of the riding I did in Costa Rica was on paved roads. It thus raises profound questions concerning to what extent a travelblogger has a duty to report on the objective truth, or the truth at least as he perceives it, instead of selecting simply the best photos and thus committing an aesthetic falsehood and perpetuating the myth of beauty and travel. Still it was quite a nice road even if it was only 10km long.
