Some more pictures of Tepic

January 13, 2024

After three days I’m eager to get riding again. Rest, cough syrup and some big blue pills from the pharmacy have done their job and I’m feeling much improved. 95% I’d say, which is good enough. The humidity is supposed stay below 50% for most of the day so I’m hoping for less painful climbs than the one which got me here.

Pretty streets. The weather was perfect today, I enjoyed walking around

Lots of vendors use these cargo bikes. Yesterday I came upon a recent collision of one of these by a motorcyclist. The poor guy was lying on the ground, his bike destroyed and a pair of cops standing over him. When I came past again on my return he was sitting up but didn’t look good. No sign of an ambulance

My destination was a Telcel agent to top up my data. I’m using about a gigabyte a day

Sugar cane for sale outside the Telcel shop

The top part says “The secret to world peace is chilaquiles”. You gotta love a bilingual pun

Outside a perfume store “Love, passion, sex with pheromones. Buy them today and be happy tomorrow”

The other park rented electric cars for the children

I could steal much better pictures with a zoom

A monument to Pancho Villa. One nation’s bandit is another’s freedom fighter

Went shopping for tomorrow at the Soriana Hipermart. Basically a Walmart

As a pedestrian I like these three dimensional yellow lines. Not so much when I’m on my bike

Volcán Sangangüey, which I’ll be riding past tomorrow. My hotel is the yellow building in the center
