Highway 200



The vehicle safety compound at Hotel San Miguel

Cobblestone street in Tomatlan

Hwy 200 from Tomatlan was the best riding day yet. 350 miles of mostly curves. The speed limits are ridiculous........posted limits of 36 or 42 mph (converted from kilometers/hr) were pretty much ignored as we went along at twice these speeds. Big mistake staying in Playa Azul tho, a beach town very expensive and touristy. A mile from the beach, Jogi's saddlebag came loose, lodged against his rear tire, tore open and spilled his underwear across the landscape. Could have been bad had he b een leaned over in a curve, but no harm done except to the
20 mile from Playa Azul

bag which was damaged severely. We lost an hour we could ill afford secondary to the time zone change. We are behind schedule to enter Guatemala Monday as it is.

Pharmacist where we stopped to change money

BELOW is a video Jogi (he's a genius!) took of me on Hwy 200
