Covered in mud from several slip and falls I make it back to the bike and prepare for the ride back. I didn't film any of the walk back to the bike because of the rain and I really just wanted to get it over with. I also figured you had probably seen enough of me walking for a little while. I talk a bit about how my helmet wasn't stolen while I was gone. The people in this area have nothing. No phones, electricity, they barely have roads. In a lot of places people would steal a helmet just because it's there to be taken. Maybe they don't have a motorcycle, but they would take it anyway. I did wonder about it while I was gone, and was pleased to see the helmet right where I left it.
Well, made it back to the bike, and uh, I'm really tired. I didn't film anything because
I was using the tripod as a cane. My ankle hurts really bad, and my knee has started
hurting too. Also, it was raining. A lot. So, um, here's the, here's the bad news, I
guess. I know you. I know you. Um, it was really slippery. I fell down a couple times.
This person right here, they told me it was half an hour away. I probably walked two hours
each direction. And uh, it's not easy when you're me. One thing I wanted to point out
is, I've been gone for four hours. Here's my helmet, still sitting on the handlebar
of my motorcycle. It isn't locked down. People, you just saw two grown men cruise past. Um,
there's, there's a family that lives right there. Anybody could have taken this. Some
people, they, I just wanted to mention that because some people they mention, when they
see me in very poor areas like this, they think poor equates to danger. But, uh, I don't
think that at all. Um, these are good people. They live their lives out here and they don't
bother anyone. No one bothers them. I just wanted to point that out. This is not some
kind of hardcore dangerous area. It's dangerous if you fall down and hurt yourself. But, uh,
that's about it. So, now I'm going to turn the motorcycle around. Just look how dirty
I am, how muddy I am. This is just from walking here. Um, dealing with the mud. So, I don't
know how much I'll be able to film as I make my way back to the pavement. Probably not
very much because I'm pretty spent. But, I'll try to get a little for you.
