Back in December of 2018 I was planning on riding to the Panama Canal from Panama City, FL but I was convinced by the US Embassy in Nicaragua that it was just not a good time to ride through Nicaragua at the time due to unrest. So, I rode from Fort Lauderdale, FL to southern Mexico and turned around and back to Fort Lauderdale with a friend, Dan.
It's time to try this ride again. Sometime in 2022 I going to attempt to ride to the Panama Canal and back. I have been wanting to do this ride for a long time and I ain't getting any younger. I put together a webpage with a lot of the information about my ride back in 2018. I have updated the webpage with a lot more information and details about my plan including country requirements, country specific fees, roads I am planning on riding on, border crossings and other good information.
This ride is going to be a long distance endurance ride and I will not be doing any sightseeing other than at the Panama Canal. It is around 8,400 miles round trip with 3,000 of those miles in the US. I am planning on completing the ride in 9 days. My goal is to ride to the Panama Canal and take a photo and ride my ass back.
If anyone is interested in maybe riding with me let me know but please understand I do not know when just yet and I am not going to be taking my time on this ride. I am going to spend the night in Panama City before starting my ride back. If you are interested read the ride planning and details webpage as it has ride timings and other information.
Here is a link to the webpage with the ride planning and details.
