| Final preparations. I replaced my worn knobby
tire with a new "road" tire. I changed the oil and polished up the
bike |
Manuel and Patti hosted me at Cafe Mayo. They
called family in Tuxpan and found me a place to stay |
My GPS wasn't much help in Tampico. I got so
lost that the local Transit Police finally told me to follow them to the
bridge. |
Hortensia and her mother cooked me a great meal at
Les' house. |
Les (and Max the world's most wimpy doberman) hosted
me for three days. |
