This would be the last night we spent in Mexico and we decided to do it in the city of Monterrey, MX.
But first we had to deal with leaving Real de Catorce, MX with loaded motorcycles which was another adventure. I specially enjoyed riding over the cobblestones with our GSA. What fun …
We approached the city of Monterey from the West and we would need to cross it to the North East. This city is one of the most developed and livable cities in Mexico and because of its proximity to the United States it is the base of many international corporations. Interesting to note that its GDP per capita is twice that of the national average. This meant that there was a lot of traffic that we had to deal with at over 100F temperatures. As we arrived at our hotel they had a little device that is supposed to measure body temperature (for COVID purposes) and our bodies glowed bright orange all over.
As we were enjoying the air-condition environment this part of the city got impacted by a major power shortage and we had to wait a couple of hours, under generator power, until the full power came back on.
The Holiday Inn where we stayed was quite new with great amenities and we specially enjoyed a great dinner.
After the power came back the rooms were nicely rolled down and we had a great night sleep.
Make Life A Ride !
