I just rolled into Arizona yesterday morning. Here's what I wrote:

The border patrol dude was nice- I turned off the bike and handed him my passport, he asked if I had anything to declare (about $40 in crafts), then asked me to remove my helmet while he was looking at my passport. He looked up and said "oh, never mind." I guess being distinctively ugly is a benefit at times. He didn't even care to see in my cases and just sent me on.

Anybody ridden Miquihana to San Antonio de Pena Nevada to Zaragoza to Aramberri then to 61? Need to make some time but the humid side of the Sierra Oriental was steamy today. Africa hot.

Teaser pics.

This was a little village with an Indian name that means "rough switchback road that don't go through".

And this was my attempt at an ADV shot. Hey. We are riding some of it.

Great work Michael...Reed's "New Sensations" and Thompson's "52 Vincent" ("red hair and black leather, my favorite color schemes", mine too!) are great motorcycle songs. You should check out Mark-Almond's "Ridin' Free" from the early seventies. They were featured players with John Mayall in late sixties and cut a few albums on their own. That tune is on "Rising" Anyone got any other faves, please not Honda, Honda...good songs.

Lately all it's been is "are you nuts?"

At least for the last 2to 3 years the border folks haven't been overly friendly or curious about Mexico.

I have done the Zaragoza Aramberri area. Its nice, but very desolate. Watch for the donkeys, cattle, horses and massive potholes. It was pretty bad when I went through. Gas is prety scarce out there as well.
