055 Cycle Touring Mexico

(Leana) #1

(^124) Ciudad Insurgentes – Ciudad Constitucion - 26km

From Ciudad Insurgentes, a short cycle led to Ciudad Constitucion
which sported an RV park. Being a typical Mexican campsite, it was a
tad dusty but full of colour, cattle skulls, and cacti. We did a whole
host of laundry and were surprised to discover two cyclists. Daniel
and Simone, a German couple, were nearing the end of their trip. It’s
always lovely to chat with other cyclists and as they decided to stay
an additional day, so did we.
Ciudad Constitucion – El Ciento Veintiocho - 89km
We waited until the sun warmed the air, and it was 11 a.m. when we
said our goodbyes to Simone and Daniel and continued south towards
La Paz. Again, the road ran as straight as an arrow through the cacti.
Came evening, the tents were pitched next to a small, isolated
“restaurant”. A dreary place to spend the night, but at sunset, the sky
was transformed into a wonderland of colour.
