Last fall a group of my friends and i decided to ride our bikes(Peddle bikes) to Guatemala just as soon as we returned from our climbing trip to Thailand, but we ran into a few snags. I(David T.) broke my foot, my married friends got a great promotion at work, and we found out that Shawny didn't know how to ride a bike, but that's not stopping the trip were just compromising(upgrading) a little.
during our trip to Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia we all came to the conclusions that we were idiots for not buying motorcycles or scooters when we had first arrived, we would rent scooters in most the areas we passed through and found it to be the absolute best way to travel we dubbed it "pure freedom." After one of these freedom rides through the mountains of Laos we came up with the solution to all our snags on our Guatemala trip, we were going to buy motorcycles to travel to Guatemala. Right around the same time I recieved an email from my lil sis, La La(Alicia) explaining that she still wanted the Guatemala trip to go through and that we should do it on scooters, i don't really fit that well on scooters so we bumpoed the idea up to full fledged motorcyles, and became instant Bad Ass's!
So here we are on the eve or eve's eve(Who really knows) of our great motorcycle ride down south, shawnys on the balcony tearing apart the carburetors to his 1982 beauty, La La's trying to scrap money together by painting up at my parents house and I'm perfecting the art of relaxing, cause i have been a loose cannon for the last couple week, stressing over details, broken motorcycles and missed deadlines. there is one thing that we all have in common though were all mentally ready to get out of this freezing cold state and hit the open highway to Mexico.
