Motorcycle adventure from Potrerillos to Boquete, Panama
This is the final installment of the quest to find the hidden path connecting Portrerillos to Boquete. I wasn't at all prepared for the type of riding we ended up getting into on this day. I thought it was going to be a quick easy ride, and I didn't take any water with me. We ended up muscling our way through the jungle on a small horse trail. My bald tire was giving me a very bad time on the trail. Our path was covered with leaves, that were hiding big exposed roots, and rocks. Once you got through the leaves the ground was a bit damp, so there was some mud to deal with as well. I had a very difficult time making any progress, Gary with is little 2 stroke had a much easier time. The list of broken motorcycle pieces added up as our day went on. My KLR650 lost a footpeg, mirror, fairing, and the handle next to the seat. Gary's Yamaha DT lost a mirror, and a rear blinker. In the end we were dehydrated and exhausted, but we found our way through and had a pretty awesome adventure.
