Some days on the road test you. Today was one of those days. Started with a flat tire about 50 km from the guesthouse. Fortunately, I have done this before and had all the tools. Fixed it in about 45 minutes, but it set the tone for the day. The route I had planned turned out to be much rougher than expected. What looked like a paved road on the map was actually loose gravel and dirt. Beautiful scenery though. By afternoon, I was exhausted but pushed through to reach the next town. Days like this are what adventure riding is all about.
Highlights
Successfully fixing the flat Discovering an untouched wilderness route Pushing through when it got tough
Challenges
Flat tire early morning Road conditions much worse than expected Physical and mental fatigue
