Today, for my 26th birthday, I conquered the ¨World´s Most Dangerous Road¨-- starting at the pass above La Paz (which had a surprise snowstorm last night) you descend 6,000 feet or so on a mountain bike, in about 4 hours. The road at times is no more than the width of car. There are no safety rails. And there are parts where if you fall, you fall a thousand feet or more. Did I mention the numerous crosses erected in memory of people who have died traversing this road?
Its an unforgettable experience. From the snow to the jungle, ending with a detour through coca farms, and then sitting poolside to bask in your own personal glory. And as we ride home, ¨We are the Champions¨plays on the car stereo.
