July 2021. Another gruelling* day on the Bikepacking Mexico South route. Just short of 8000ft ASL near San Miguel Quetzaltepec, Oaxaca.
Only the very steepest of these dirt roads are concreted and this was a rare section of barrier, despite sheer drops to one or both sides of the road being commonplace.
* 12000ft of climbing, 8000ft of descent. Bl**dy fantastic.

Translation: Cyclists training. We all want to get home.
A dozen of these on the 200km between Tulum and Bacalar, Quintana Roo, Mexico. In two days (not the weekend) I didn't see any cyclists!
