Safety driving through Venezuela
While I generally take the State Department warnings with some scepticism, the safety warnings about Venezuela are pretty strong. I've been all through central and south America and am not easily spooked, but also don't want to be stupid.
I am planning on riding through there in August, on my way back from the "Deep South". I rode down the Pacific coast, and don't want to backtrack. Anyone have any relatively recent experience in Venezuela, and what would you recommend? Also, route or stop recomendations would be appreciated.
