Nicaragua and Cuba 2016


Another hitch done. Looking forward to spending some time in Nicaragua. Nothing planned per se. Read, rest, maybe get my surf board out and boogie boards, butcher the Spanish language and do some mountain biking. And maybe some Xbox.

From Coco to San Juan in only 17k but the hills are brutal. Steep and long, I have yet to see a local do it. They are tough as nails but generally push the bikes up the hills. I lost a bit of weight and spent a lot of time on the stationary bike last hitch so I want to keep that going so I am going to try to bike all the way into town including the hills. Pray for Frankie.


I took a different route this time, Dubai-Amsterdam-Atlanta-Managua on KLM and Delta. I generally fly Star Alliance but it the connections and increased prices were prohibitive.

  1. Have a great off-shift buddy.

    The nice thing about biking the hills in to SJDS is that you'll have some craft beers waiting at the finish line!!
