Nicaragua: Feb-Mar 2011

Yet another amazing trip to this Central American gem. On and offroad over 11 days and it wasn't nearly enough time.

A wrong turn took me here. I don't even know if this wave has a name.

Part of the trip involved exploring a section of jungle none where none of the locals knew of any roads, and only a handful suggested "paths" but didn't recommend them for motorcycle travel. Tight jungle singletrack, and hopping over trees while being yelled at by howler monkeys ensued.
