Back to Popayan
February 12, 2010 (continued) Okay, well fed, my ride back to Popayan starts in earnest. It’s beautiful scenery, along 150 +/- km of dirt roads, and I am loving it. Some days I don’t make very good time because I stop and take so many pictures. I love these days where I just *travel*, not

Tierradentro
February 9, 2010 I woke up in the night to the sound of POURING rain. Torrential. Stupendous. It was still pouring when I got up…Oofa. I did not want to stay another night in this dump, cheap as it was… I walked to breakfast clinging to the sides of the buildings trying not to get

The Road to Cali
February 4, 2010 Back out the Valley road back to the Panamericana. Nice pass on the double yellow… PEAJE. The road was hot and flat and pretty straight. I rode through miles and miles of sugar cane fields. Then I see this sign…I understand “tren” (train) but canero? i am puzzled… Until I see this.

The Most Magical Place on Earth: Valle de Corcora
February 3, 2010 I had a great time in Manizales with Adolfo. It was fun to walk around together, and nice to get to know him a bit (finally! we’d been so busy we did not have much time to talk until yesterday) Today he wanted to visit a friend in Periera…we decided to ride

Everything said and done, I have to admit while I found the whole Panama City experience very stressful, I had it SUPER easy.
