		<description><![CDATA[As they say ‘time flies when you’re having fun,’ and a lot sure has happened in the last month. After riding through Costa Rica, we reached our most southerly destination in Panama City. From there we proceeded to cruise up to Miami and then skip up to Richmond, Virginia via Amtrak before setting out on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After our struggles in Honduras, we were anxious to cross into Nicaragua &#8211; although the oppressive heat, heavy headwinds and 40lbs of a broken electric assist continued to weigh us down. But for some reason, even though our hardships had nothing to do with the country of Honduras itself, crossing that border brought some relief. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most days, for most people, something doesn’t go as planned. You wake up late, or you get a flat tire, or you don’t pack enough for lunch. Usually these are just little bumps in the road that are simple to navigate – you probably don’t even remember them, as these simple mishaps are just a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As we’ve begun to learn, crossing into a new country usually means you will have a change in traffic types and road conditions. El Salvador was no different – after the border we were greeted by a wide road with a five-foot smoothly paved shoulder, and an astounding amount of bicycle traffic – with almost [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From the moment a child enters this world they are on a continual mission to gain independence from their parents. It’s not easy at first – in fact, they are completely helpless as infants and parents must do everything for them, sacrificing significant time, energy, and precious sleep. But ever so slowly, something magical happens. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lago de Atitlan in Guatemala, often dubbed the prettiest lake in the world, certainly took our breath away. The lake itself sits in the massive crater of an ancient volcano, and many more volcanoes fill the views across the water. A smattering of small, unique villages packed with tourists, ex-pats, and indigenous Mayan peoples ring [...]]]></description>

Certainly our time in Guatemala flew by, with new experiences around every corner and so much left undiscovered that we are thoroughly enticed to return again in the future. We could easily spend two months in this country [...]]]></description>

And while this is true, and fits [...]]]></description>
