Everything is Falling Apart! And lifes good

Hello folks.  Greetings from Playa Azul.  We are still on the pacific going from beach to beach for lots of beautiful camping and riding as well.  However we are rolling and three bikes with lots of miles on them.  In the past week we have had:

a snapped frame, a broken derailer, a cracked rim, at least 8 flats, another more severley cracked rim and lots of little odds and ends.  The great thing about Mexico is the peoples ability to whip up quick repairs.  Jackie got an entire wheel with a functioning cassette and freewheel for 10 dollars, Jason got his frame welded back together in minutes for 1.50.  We are rolling good now and continue to head south.

I have developed a plan for afterword.  I have about a month to kill while I wait for Vincant to get back and catch up so I am going to hitch hike around and check inland out and climb that volcano Izta I was talking about earlier.  Im really excited to take a break from the bike.

Since the last post we have passed the states of Jalisco, Colima, and Michocan and tomorrow we pass into Guerrero.  Michocan has a beautiful undeveloped coast and the cycling is great.  Love you all.
