Border day again. One of my tire plugs leaked overnight and had to replug the tire to start. Put us behind schedule, but Juan takes us to the Ruines while he finishes emails because the hacienda's power was out. Take a tour around the ruins, pics and then on the road.
We arrived at the border as the lady processing our passports leaves for lunch. 3/4 hour later, she arrives back and stamps us out within 5 minutes. Get the bikes stamped out, then we get stamped into Guatemala. Everything is going smoothly until Juan has a problem that his bike can not be let back into Guatemala because of a 3 month import rule. We get stamped through and Jaun has to wait for the administrator to come back from a meeting. We have lunch and the guy does not show, so Michael and I leave Juan. We ride for 2 hours and the sky is darkening and threatening rain. Find a nice hotel and email Juan. He was able to enter, at about 5pm and rode for an hour. Michael and I have decided to ride hard tomorrow as Guatemala is a dirty shit hole. Meaning they use the sides of the roads as dumps. Garbage everywhere….We feel that we can make the Mexican border.
