wow what a day in the saddle, must have been amazing scneryView attachment 600877
July 2021. Another gruelling* day on the Bikepacking Mexico South route. Just short of 8000ft ASL near San Miguel Quetzaltepec, Oaxaca.
Only the very steepest of these dirt roads are concreted and this was a rare section of barrier, despite sheer drops to one or both sides of the road being commonplace.
* 12000ft of climbing, 8000ft of descent. Bl**dy fantastic.
