How we became the 4 Amigos

Upon starting the trip we had seis amigos as you have read we are now down to quatro amigos. How we got there. Ricardo had planned to head in another direction the whole time and has been traveling westward and northward. Good luck Amigo and have a great time with the kids.
El capitan had to make the very difficult decision to return back to the states. Hope your trip was safe. As I have mentioned we had a member injured.
In one amazing feat of moto driving Roy managed to miss a wildly running bull, 2 elder mexican senoritas, 4 motorcyclists, on a rain slicked road in the streets of Pachula. As Roy swerved his bike to avoid this disastrous road block he slid on some gravel and controlably slid out of the way avoiding everyone. The Kawa was fine except for his poor panniers as they have seen many injuries thus far. Unfortunately the weight of the bike had been a bit too much for Roys ankle and it fractured. In great spirits and determination we headed into Orizaba to later get confirmation of the fracture from the mexican medical community thru xray. Total treatment for xray, wound care, cast and crutches was a mere 2 cervesa ...yes thats right it cost about what 2 mexican beers cost...TOTAL
Roy...well miss ya and thanks a whole bunch for organizing this wonderful trip.
Hasta luega ...amigo
