Headed to San Cris
I am headed that way but in Puerto Vallarta tonight. Leaving tomorrow and driving south along the coast. I should be in San Cris in 3-5 days but want to visit Palenque before going to Guatemala.

My plans are even less certain. I made it to Zihuatenajo today. I'm still 3 days from San Chris. When I finish looking around Palenque, I will reassess. I do know I will not be crossing to Colombia. I highly recommend it though!!

I am a day behind Musq, Not sure of how soon I will be in San Cristobal, maybe by this week end, I am on the Nov. 17th run of the Stahlratte, so I can't play around to much. So maybe see you on the way. I was thinking of maybe Day of the dead in Santiago Guatemala, if I get my butt in gear.

Gone to Guatemala or Palenque yet? I am bouncing around this area a bit, but if our paths cross it would be cool to grab a or something.

Ever find a chain? Where are you now?

Made it back to the border in two bott burning days and one more back to Houston.
Still thinking of San Cristobal and south - Keep me informed of your travels so I won't stop planning

Later, Chuck

We're in Antigua at the moment. There are a couple of other bikers here also. Let us know if you're heading this way.
We're on the same sailing too so will probably bump into you somewhere between here and Panama if we don't meet up here.....

Greetings,

I am in San Cristobal for two nights before heading to the Guatemalan border. Arrived two hours ago. Drop me a line if anyone is about.
