Ride To Belize, Ninja Style

Excuse me. Can I have five minutes of your time? Could you watch this video?

The Ginger Ninjas have done something truly amazing here. It is the kind of thing the rest of us dream about and never do. Let's help them finish this film so we can all live vicariously through their incredible adventure. I know I want to see what happened along the way- the road from Todos Santos to Guadalajara is something I have only experienced on a bus, and that was something else!

Visit the Ginger Ninja's Kickstarter page. Give them a couple of bucks instead of buying a latte today. Bicycle community isn't just in the lane!

The Road Not Yet Travelled

Are you like me? Do you have wander lust that rarely gets relieved? There has yet to be a trip proposed to me that I would say no to. Going somewhere is something I have always loved. Usually, I have to content myself with wondering where other people are headed.

I used to watch airplanes and wonder where they were off to, now I watch bicycle tourists. How far is the ride? Where did it start? What is in the panniers? Are the roads better here or there? What have they seen and what is ahead?

One day. Someone will watch me and ask themselves the same questions. I will smile because I will have the answers.
