That looks like the bike of my dreams. My reality is far more mundane. Glad to know it’s holding up and taking you to places few dared dream.

Hey Jacob,

Great to read you all are out of the metaphorical woods and regrouping on new steads. Flag is a nice place to be stuck and serve a little pennance. Quite some machines you describe. Had the pleasure of bumping into Goat, Jenny and JJ last week. Can’t help wondering if the bike pictured above wouldn’t have come in more handy in the northern hemisphere, but it should handle the sand nicely.

Hope the future travels go more smoothly–although that’s not saying much.

I look forward to reading about the adventures in the Copper Canyon and Chiapas. It’s truly beautiful in the state of Chihuahua and the roads aren’t too bad either. Should be great weather this time of year if it’s not too windy.

Stay safe and watch out for Federales, banditos and whatnot,
Best, Brij
