Most recent leg of the Tour de Mexico is in the books. 1000 miles from Leon to Oaxaca over some incredible countryside. Managed yet again to not get my head chopped off. Here's a video of some of the trip.

Cool of you to let Ed Ogeron tag along. He’s been pretty down since he didn’t get the DL job here.

The guy who looks the most like Ed is the first and only American to ever finish the Dakar rally in the Malle Moto class. Which means that basically you do the entire race by yourself with no pit or support crew. They will transport one footlocker for you that you put your tools and spare parts in and your camping gear. Between stages every night you do whatever maintenance and prep necessary on the bike yourself before getting any sleep. The only things they carry for you outside of this are oil/gas and tires, which have their own truck. Suffice to say, he is a bad mutherfkker.

Actually, no. The government blocks youtube so I can't view the video in the original post...

Have to admit the thread title had me wondering why our backup QB Micah Leon would transfer to a Mexican University without a football team! :lol2: Guess I’m just gun shy from all the bad Portal news!

That’s pretty awesome.

I stayed at a Courtyard about a month ago with really spotty WiFi. So I get it.

Zambo went to Oaxaca just so he could feel tall.

Riding through Sinaloa... interesting choice.

I finally got to watch the video from home. That is really cool. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Did you stop at any good Mexican restaurants that you would highly recommend? ;)

There was a pretty good chalupa place in Irapuato.
