Honda, Tolima [Colombia]

The heat continues... It's so hot that I have to stop riding and cool down before I can begin to sweat.  I'm now sure how that happens...

I've starting biking on one of the major highway routes of Colombia.  It's one of two north-south routes.  Several times a day, people pull-over to ask me for directions.  I'm not quite sure why they think that I, an obvious foreigner, would know how to get places... but they do.  Then, I'm asked why I don't know.... not much to say other than, "I'm not from here."  That response always elicits a few giggles from the passengers and a strange look from the driver.

  1. Heh Matt: It was great to meet you at GLA's training in San Diego/Rosarito and I'm happy to see you are "keepin' on truckin'" with the bike trip. I enjoyed our conversations immensely and wish you the best on your travels. I hope our paths cross again one of these days!!! Gary Robinson (www.P3mentalhealth.com)
