This morning we ventured out on intending to stay on paved roads...at least that was my plan...headed towards Briceno a small village a short distance from Canoa made a left turn for San Isidro which we not reach. Stopped at a small outdoor cafe called Aqua Fria. A small cattle farm was across the street ....the staff appeared delited to see 2 gringos and though we only ordered coffee the waitress brought out a plate og planteens with fresh cheese made locally.
Athir being inquisitive walks over to the cattle farm and engages a caballero on horseback....farm talk...the waitress walks over to me and invites me to join her and walk over to the farm.....
Athir makes an inquiry re the direction of the road across from the cafe....The back road goes past Rio Muchacho ( Organic Farm ).....the turn off the pavement is a dirt (mud) track with a number of stream crossing....slick in places with Athir going down once and later I dropped my bike....no damage except to ones ego.
I have a luncheon date CON MI MAESTRA DE ESPANOL and am anxious to get back so our ride is only the morning....this afternoon we plan on returning to Agua Fria which only opened this past September.....it really is in the middle of nowhere as far as population.
