With a jury consisting of John, Joerg and Scharfie, it might be ruled a
double suicide: They didn't use the road's shoulder, appear not to have
used rearview mirrors, their calves were at best slightly pink-colored, not
fluoro or merbromin orange, and, worst of all, they didn't use Joerg &
Scharfie approved extra bright safety flashers!
I love Mexico! My heart bleeds for the country. We, in the US, bear
some of the fault; we buy their dope and sell them guns.
At this point in time and in the forseeable future, I would not travel
by bicycle in Mexico except (possibly) in a sponsored and supported
tour... and I *hate* tours! The level of danger is simply
unacceptable for an intelligent person. You may as well bicycle in
Afghanistan!
I dislike war zones and I fear that Mexico is now one of these.
