November 11, 2017 I flew from Portland, Oregon to Acapulco, Mexico. I spent my first night in a beach resort. The next morning I started cycling east. I stayed in hotel and cycled for 9 days by the time I reached Salina Cruz, Mexico. Then I took ground transportation until I arrived at Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. I spent a couple of days cycling near Panajachel and then took a bus to Antigua. I cycled around Antigua for a couple of days and then took a bus to Tikal National Park. I spent 2 days hiking and biking in Tikal. Then I took a bus and boat to Livingston, Guatemala and spent the night. Then I went to Rio Dulce for two days and cycled around there. From Rio Dulce I took a 180 mile, 8 hour bus ride to Guatemala City. On December 03, 2017 I flew back to Portland, Oregon from Guatemala City, Guatemala. In total I cycled about 726 miles and covered a little over 1300 miles in buses and boats through Mexico and Guatemala in 20 days.
June 23, 2018 Marty and I flew from Portland, Oregon to La Paz, Mexico. We arrive in La Paz on the morning of June 24 and I cycled to the Baja Ferry terminal. Then I cycled back to where I had cycled in 2003 on Highway 1. We travelled by bus to Cabo San Lucas, Todos Santos and then back to La Paz. Than we took the ferry from La Paz to Topolobampo. The next day I cycled to Guamúchil and then took the bus to Mazatlán. Marty took the bus from Topolobampo to Mazatlán. I cycled 202.62 miles during this trip where 95.61 of the miles were used to complete a section of my American Journey (Arctic Ocean to Antarctic Ocean). I also covered about 600 miles in buses during this short trip. On July 2, 2018 I flew back to Portland, Oregon from Mazatlán, Mexico.
