Baja California: dead straight roads, emptiness and camping!
“Do you hear that?”
“What?”
“It’s quiet…”
Bicycle touring in Mexico.
“Do you hear that?”
“What?”
“It’s quiet…”
Our new beasts on two wheels had a good spin on the flat and straight roads from Merida to Campeche, but it was time to hit the mountains again. Away from the heat and finding cool air and a different landscape. But, before we’d be puffing and sweating our way 3000 meter up, we’d stopped to visit mysterious Palenque.
Long, straight and flat roads, nearly 40 degrees Celsius; here and there a Maya ruin and a colorful Cenote to cool down. Yes, this is cycling in Yucatan, Mexico!
