Headed to San Cris
 
I am headed that way but in Puerto Vallarta tonight. Leaving tomorrow and driving south along the coast. I should be in San Cris in 3-5 days but want to visit Palenque before going to Guatemala.

My plans are even less certain. I made it to Zihuatenajo today. I'm still 3 days from San Chris. When I finish looking around Palenque, I will reassess. I do know I will not be crossing to Colombia. I highly recommend it though!!

akbill 23 Oct 2012 01:12

I am a day behind Musq, Not sure of how soon I will be in San Cristobal, maybe by this week end, I am on the Nov. 17th run of the Stahlratte, so I can't play around to much. So maybe see you on the way. I was thinking of maybe Day of the dead in Santiago Guatemala, if I get my butt in gear.

musq 23 Oct 2012 15:50

Akbill, Are you on the coast? I am in Zihuatenajo and looking for a chain. If you're close, let me know.

Gone to Guatemala or Palenque yet? I am bouncing around this area a bit, but if our paths cross it would be cool to grab a beer or something.

Ever find a chain? Where are you now?

Made it back to the border in two bott burning days and one more back to Houston.
Still thinking of San Cristobal and south - Keep me informed of your travels so I won't stop planning bier

Later, Chuck

We're in Antigua at the moment. There are a couple of other bikers here also. Let us know if you're heading this way.
We're on the same sailing too so will probably bump into you somewhere between here and Panama if we don't meet up here.....

Greetings,

I am in San Cristobal for two nights before heading to the Guatemalan border. Arrived two hours ago. Drop me a line if anyone is about.

Regards, Mike.

WilderRider 2 Nov 2012 21:31

I am another biker in Antigua for a little bit before heading further south. But just Panama and back this time.

Lucky 6 Nov 2012 03:14

Hi all,

I will go on Stahlratte 17. Nov. and will be in Antigua tomorrow.
Any recommendation for a place to stay in Antigua?

Regards,
Uli

ferretface 6 Nov 2012 03:21

Hi Uli

We stayed in Casa Cristina and the lady who runs the hotel let us park our bike at her house around the corner (very secure)
If you are looking for budget accommodation then try El Hostal. They let you park your bike securely in the entrance (locking doors at night).

We've just left and are in Honduras so might see you on the way (we're on the same boat as you)

Cheers
Dan

There are plenty of places in Antigua, but El Hostel on the east side of town on 1 Av is pretty nice and easy on the budget. If you get into town, there are plenty of bikers around. I am here for a few more days too.

Lucky 6 Nov 2012 14:24

Good morning everyone,

thanks for the hints - i will move into direction of Antigua now and will check out your tips - I do also plan a visit to the moto cafe ;)

Look out for a Triumph Tiger - with huge side and top boxes in grey.

Cu,
Lucky

Lucky 7 Nov 2012 02:38

I checked out both Casa Christina and El Hostal and decided for El Hostal - there a lot of traverls around and the place is funny.
Though Casa Christina left a very good impression as well.

Thx for the tips.

Cheers,
Uli
