We're in Mexico

Hey everyone, and hello from south of the border! Dave and I are fine, healthy and safe. We entered Mexico on the 11th at 6am in the morning. We started out early to avoid the bordertown "safety problems" that everyone seemed to be worried about and traveled just over 100 miles to the small town of Janos so as to be away from the border. We stayed in a hotel that night and travelled to Nuevo Casas Grandes on the 12th. We are currently in Nvo. Casas Grandes and will be leaving for the city of Buenaventura soon. I am thinking there won't be any internet for the next week so below is a map of our planned travels = 5 days on the bike and then a train ride over the sierra madres to the town of Guamucil. We will try to get in contact with everyone when possible and we should be able to get internet access again when we arrive in Guamuchil = if not, the next major town of Culiacan will most definitely have internet. Alright, wish us luck, bye for now!

Thanks for the updates! There are a bunch of people (including me)who are munching on antacids as we watch and worry. Godspeed gentlemen. - Jim.
