When I'm in Bolivia this summer, I fancy doing something a little different.

I may mountain bike along 'El Camino De La Muerte', or the 'road of death', which was deemed such a dangerous road that it was closed to motorists. The stones lining the road are graves or memorials for those who have plunged from the edge of the road to their deaths below. It's a 38 mile downhill track with hairpin turns and all!
I'm fairly sure the insurance I bought won't cover it but.. you only live once!
Here's a few photos of it:

This is not a promising sign, but I'm sure a mountain bike has less likelihood of sending me plunging to my doom than a large cargo truck...
It's amazing. I'll upload the pictures I take, of this and the rest of the holiday when I get back. In fact, I may post my itinerary on here. If anyone's interested, that is!

Cannot wait for this.
