In fact a lot of the power outlets have TWO holes only and makes it impossible to use a normal 3 pin plug. I had to acquire another adaptor that negates the earth pin for these places.

I have already done El Salvador last week, I will be going into Costa Rica tomorrow, this will also be a ‘fun’ time according to those who have gone before.

Paying out graft should be considered a rip-off, but merely a road toll. Not much different then dropping 160 quarters in a slot at some booth.

Haven’t seen you vent like that before. Just consider Honduras the border between Guatemala and El Salvador, then it shouldn’t hurt so much.

I hope El Salvador runs better for you.

As for the India traffic, not been there yet but I have heard and read horror stories, maybe I need to read your ride reports or blog, do you have one ?

Cheers TS

At this stage there is no way I can get back up to Honduras at all, before my time/money runs out.

I have a feeling I will only just get to the bottom of this continent and maybe back up to Buenos Aires before having to fly the bike to LA or somewhere like that so I can clean it up and sell it.

That is still way in the future, and now that the Rumble to Barossa has been postponed, it means a bit more time for me (read you and Graham) to prep my bike for the ride across the nullabor to Albany :)

As much as I would love a steak and some piss, not xxxx but real beer, at the brekky, it will have to wait until at least the end of Feb.

Cheers TS
