When we first arrived, we got tied up in some kind of protest that seemed on the verge of becoming a full on riot. A group of people almost overran our motorcycles, but the local police were there and kept everything under control and it turned out ok. I've never seen anything like it.

(Changing the subject:) I don't want this to become a self fulfilling prophecy, but I've got a feeling this isn't going to be a banner riding season for putting miles on our bikes. We're getting a pretty late start this season, we normally have our 1st ride in May and sometimes even in April. The way our summer schedule is stacking up it looks like many weekends are already booked with activities: a family vacation, extended family get-together, stuff-at-work-I-can't-miss, etc. etc. Ah well, we'll make the best of it. :)
