Motorcycle to South America – The 4,500 Mile Report

By Brandon Edward

South America.  That seems awfully far away.  Like I said at the beginning, I hope that we can make it to the far side of the Panama Canal, do a little dance and celebrate making it to South America.  As it stands now, we’ve been on the road for seven weeks and covered 4,569 miles.  […]

Tulum – The Last Stand of the Mexican Caribbean

By Brandon Edward

What used to be a two lane road down the coast South of Cancun is now a ripping four lane super highway shuttling tourists from one all inclusive resort to the next.  I’ll never understand this mentality.  Each year hundreds of thousands of tourists hop on a plane in their home city and fly to […]

Mexican Hotels – How Cheap is Cheap?

By Brandon Edward

There are many variables in finding cheap accommodations in Mexico.  Now that we’ve traveled the length of the country I think we’ve amassed enough information to give you a run down of what to expect.  Prices change from town to town and so does value for your money.  For instance, tonight we’re in a hotel […]

Motorcycle to South America – Chichen Itza

By Brandon Edward

We did it.  We got up early this morning to beat the tourist buses from Cancun to Chichen Itza.  We almost opted out of seeing these ruins on account of the cost and the tourist trap, but you don’t go to India and miss seeing the Taj Mahal.  You don’t go to China and miss […]

Mayan Museo de Cocao – Ruta Puuc, Yucatan, Mexico

By Brandon Edward

At 90 Pesos a person it was a tough sell, but I just don’t think I was going to get Keli out of the Yucatan without going to Cocoa Museum.  The museum was in the Middle of the Jungle on the road to Oxkutzcab, Mexico.  It focused primary on the importance of Cocoa in the […]

Municipal Police – First Encounter

By Brandon Edward

So there we were in Hopelchen, Mexico minding our own business.  We’re just riding our motorcycle around the plaza checking things out when Keli spies an ice cream shop.   I whip into the nearest parking spot and we make for dessert, turned out to be the best ice cream we’ve had in Mexico.  We’re enjoying […]

Hello Yucatan – We’re in Mayan Country – Edzna Ruins

By Brandon Edward

We won’t officially be in the Estado de Yucatan until tomorrow, but we are on the Yucatan Peninsula and in the thick of Mayan country.  This is the first real destination we had besides south and we made it!  We’ve come 4,000 miles by motorcycle and driven just about the entire country of Mexico North […]

Motorcycle to South America – It Ain’t all Peaches

By Brandon Edward

Seriously Mexico, potholes 5 or 6 feet long,  8 or 10 inches deep and 3 feet wide on a toll road ? I think you’re missing an ingredient or two in your asphalt.  It looks brand new and has giant craters in it big enough to totally screw up my day.  Did you just pave […]

Catemaco Lake – Catemaco, Veracruz, Mexico

By Brandon Edward

We wound up here almost by accident, again.  If you recall, in the last installment we visited an enormous waterfall in Salto de Eyipanla.  In an effort to avoid the spendy tourist trap at the waterfall we gambled and left an hour before sunset even though we were 45 minutes from the main road.  We […]

Salto de Eyipantla Waterfall, Veracruz, Mexico

By Brandon Edward

It always starts with obscure sign on the side for road with an unmistakable pictograph.  In this case a waterfall.  The road you turn onto seems nice enough.  Then, of course, you encounter a giant pile of dirt in the center of it blocking your path. We just want to look at the waterfall.  Okay, […]
