On Another Note

This has nothing to do with motorcycles, but since I drive Tractor-Trailer, I thought I would show you why you should never mess with a Semi. Notice that the only thing that happened to the Semi, was a slightly bent bumper!!!!! Click here.

Latitude, 0 Degrees, 0 Minutes, 0 Seconds. Welcome to the Equator




Eric Cleaveland took a side trip today to the deviding line between the Northern Hemesphere and the Southern Hemesphere. He stood with one foot on each side of the Equator. See it all here: http://www.motoamericas.blogspot.com/ Pictures are property of Eric Cleaveland

Eric Cleaveland....on to Panama

Eric Cleaveland is getting ready to make the "hop" from Ecuador to Panama. He will soon be making arrangements to fly himself and his bike to Panama since there is no road thru the Darien Pass, between Columbia and Panama. The Darien Pass is a boggy marshy area that is nearly impassible with a vehicle, although I understand it was traversed by a "Range Rover" 4x4 at one time, setting a world record in the process.
