First Military Checkpoint
About 50 miles into Mexico and starting to get into the rhythm of riding. I was very nervous before I was heading into the border, but my paranoia slowly drifted away and I began enjoying the ride. I'm on my way to Creel and the Copper Canyon.

Hassles at the Mexico Border
I just left the immigration offices at the border and ride my first miles into Mexico. It was like a whole new world after crossing, so I am pretty focused on the road and where I need to be headed. I had some problems at the border.

Crossing the Mexico Border
I cross into the Mexico border near Big Bend National Park in Texas. This was my first border crossing that dealt with paper work (Canada was easy) and it was a bit of a hassle. Next video will elaborate more.

Taking New Sigur Rós For a Ride
My favorite band, Sigur Ros, released a new album title "með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust." Whenever I get a new album I wait to listen to it until I'm going for a ride on some twisty roads. Another album to slip into the "zone" while riding. Song is titled "Inní mér syngur vitleysingur."

Kicking off my Saddle Sore 1000
I started riding at 4am and chat about the days ahead of me. Sorry for the dirty visor, I swear I was more diligent about cleaning my visor for the rest of the trip...really!

Should the penny be eliminated? Here are some arguments why it should be. Which do you like better paper or coin currency? Who can tell me what the bumper sticker I came across means?

Two Years of Touring on Two
Just a sample of many roads and places I've gone to over the past two years. The majority of all these videos are available on my channel if you care to see more.
The song is "Just Like You Imagined" by Nine Inch Nails. This gets me in the groove when I'm riding the twisties.
