You may wish to think twice about that.

Is that Bayley trying to pass an 18 wheeler pulling his new trailer?:D

Does anybody know the legal length in Bolivia?

I'd like to see a view of the bottom of the mountain. I wonder what the truck driver mortality rate is? :D

If you go over the edge, you are (were) too long. :D

Tuga- During the stint in NYC, I picked the wrong street to drive down which was left little space between the parked cars to get by. Stefanny had to get out and guide me and there was just an inch on either side of the bus to get by. Even taking your time and going slow it was still never racking. I'm surprised that this only happend once in all the time we were there reflecting on it.

When I first got the bus I drove through the Redwood Forrest and it was really tight against the mountain but not like Bolivia. The truckers coming the other direction all knew the road eveidently and took no pity on me. I don't know about you but I keep spilling my cocktail when I have to keep such a close watch on the road.

HEY, HEY, HEY, Thats not true. :mad: The road to Kerrville is not dirt, it is semi-paved. Unless you come in the back way, and then it is dirt. :D

JPJ,

Your mixing photos from China and Bolivia. Bolivia's "Road of Death" is one interesting trail....I don't think I would call it a "road".

Upside is they will not ticket you for being overlength...hehehe:D
