The ride to Mindo turned out to be an Adventure....again Asphalt turned to stone and gravel...washouts and landslides....google said 4 1/2 hours to do 180 k......not at an average sppeed of 25k for most of the way.

This looks relatively straight...not so....check google maps....they don't even show it turn back on itself

Amost 10 hours

Assessing if I should attempt it
I did...... no way I wanted to cover 4 1/2 hours back where we started

we needed a wash and soon we got one having to go through a waterfall flowing over the road...hoping not be swept over the edge.

Athir through the mud

Looking for a way through this....

Athir dropped his bike trying to go around the mud

They wanted a photo with the crazy gringo who tried to get through a landslide....someone had taken a picture and forwarded down the road

Made it to Mindo at 7pm..... staying here to rest for another day then Canoa
