Saturday 16th July El Pescadero to Cabo San Lucas I say tried to get some sleep as I found it near on impossible, what with the heat, barking dogs and odd car driving past. I must have got some sleep eventually though, as the chorus of cockerels woke me up around 6am. I couldn’t get…

The last push to La Paz: Ciudad Constitucion to La Paz
Sunday 10th-14th July Cuidad Constitucion to La Paz Despite leaving the hotel before Ed, he still managed to overtake me a bit further up the road. I tend to stick to around 75kph these days, to help preserve my engine, plus I find it’s a more relaxing speed. However I…
My name is Rachel, and I have an addiction to swimming pools: Playa Requeson to Ciudad Constitucion
Saturday 9th July We woke early in the morning to a gorgeous sunrise, and thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet that comes with being in such a tranquil location. Well that was until our distant neighbours, nicknamed Armin Van Fuckface by Ed, decided to whack their shitty dance music up full blast while…
Willy good fun in the water: San Ignacio to Playa Requeson
Friday 8th July Having had our fix of luxury for the time being, it was time to leave San Ignacio and continue our journey to the east coast. Despite enjoying the last few days together we still wanted to ride separately, something that was confirmed to me the day before when we were riding round…
A Desert Oasis: Guerrero Negro to San Ignacio
Wednesday 6th July to Thursday 7th July After a lazy start and a well deserved lie-in for Ed, we packed up the bikes and headed off in different directions, at least at first. Ed needed to top up his phone in town, and I was headed to the town of San Ignacio. I…
Cactus ahoy! San Quintin to Catavina
Mon 4th July San Quintin to Catavina So after a fun weekend together, it was time for me and Ed to say farewell to each other before parting ways again. It’d been good to see each other, however we were both keen to head off on our own, but little did we know that we’d…
TAT Day 113 (Port Orford, Oregon to Klamath Falls, Oregon)
Friday 27th November Port Orford, OR to Klamath Falls, OR We couldn’t have asked for better weather when we finally woke in the morning. High in the bright blue sky sat a deliciously warm sun, and we got a real surprise when we stepped out of the motel and realised just how toasty it was…
TAT Day 105 (Silver Lake, Oregon to Crescent, Oregon)
Thursday 19th November Silver Lake, OR to Crescent, OR We woke to yet another bright day and sunny day, which did wonders for our motivation and enthusiasm. Clouds still hung in the sky, and as we took a paved road out of town a beautiful rainbow appeared over the road. I could have…
TAT Day 103 (Fields, Oregon to Lakeview, Oregon)
Monday 16th November Fields, OR to Lakeview, OR (Apologies that this next bit is a tad lengthy, but I needed to write and post it to get it off my chest. Feel free to scroll down to where we leave the hell hole that is Fields Station) We got up in the morning, packed up most of our…
TAT Day 101 (Paradise valley, Nevada to McDermitt, Nevada)
Saturday 14th November Paradise valley, NV to McDermitt, NV We ended up spending all morning and part of the afternoon with Lee. He was good company, and kindly cooked us breakfast while Ed got to play with his guns out of the kitchen window, before heading outside to do some clay pigeon shooting. …
