Mazatlan

CT Mexico Day Four.

After three days on the ms Oosterdam we were all glad to have the opportunity to get in some off-ship miles. Met up with Rudy and Apolonio and off we went on a cruise through Mazatlan and into the jungle. It was a bit rough from the technical aspect, and we brought back some bruises, scrapes and bug bites, but the two hours spent in the saddle, was a blast.

Tomorrow in Puerto Vallarta, we get back on our more sedate road bikes for a long ride with Alejandro, south for what is rumored to be close to 33K. Along the coast, with few hills and a 7-11 around every corner. Right.

For those of you wondering about my progress on the NBD, so-far, so-good. I broke down and had a slice of cheese pizza after our CT sessions last night, but other than that, nada. Too early too tell if there has been any progress, but it's only day 7, so we'll give it some time. I did look at the cake doughnuts longingly this morning as I grabbed a cuppa joe out the door and onto the gangplank.

Out from day four on the CompuTrainer Mexico cruise. Mazatlan done, PV manana. Adios amigos.

Pix: Suz hammers out of the jungle, John, Kristi, Dave, Travis at the ranchero and Rudy, our expert guide, salutes the ride: Mucho bueno.
