Having mechanical problems in very poor countries.

Hey guys, if you have a mechanical problem with your bike in a very poor country I recommend doing a temporary fix and driving to the closest better poor country.

Nicarauga is a great example of a incredibly poor country. I am currently staying in Manauga (the capital) and I can not believe how difficult it is to find common items that normal big cities have.
