Well that was this morning….!!
This evening I am in Granada, Nicaragua…!!
Caned it through Costa Rica, making a 600 km ride from close to the Panama border, and through to Granada, a small town on the northern edge of Lake Nicaragua…!!
Stopping for a short break along the Costa Rican coastline, just north of Dominicial...
"Jesus, Maria...!! I can't find my Tivives...!!"
The Dark Destroyer came to the rescue at the border, and I made it through both border posts in just under an hour, refusing to make use of the many touts that surrounded me, as I arrived…!!
Buggers awakened my goat…!!
Which saw a pair of them almost flattened by a roaring Big Fella…
See…!! Even he was annoyed….!!
I have made two rides through Central America now, covering just over 1 200 km, and passing through three countries…
I’ll be nailing Nicaragua and Honduras on my third ride, and sailing through El Salvador and into Guatemala on my fourth…!!
My rides are planned with the border crossings firmly in mind, because these are the points where all your best laid plans, can come to grief… It is not unusual to be stuck at these borders longer than it takes to ride from one end of the country to the other…!!

Granada, Nicaragua.
Dry fields and Volcanoes... Edge of Lake Nicaragua....
Cloud Dancer.... (It's a ballerina, for goodness sake...!! Look carefully...!!)
That’s one hell of a ride with border post involved! When you get to Guatemala try to detour thru COPAN.An awesome ruin and quaint little village to rest up in before crossing into Mexico
Hi, Are you going to overnight in Guatemala? Have a place to stay? Let me know.
Hiya Rodrigo…
I am spending a few nights up at Tikal for sure, but haven’t quite decided which border I will use to cross from El Salvador into Guatemala….
