Todays lesson: Make sure you know what paperwork you need in a country before you leave the border… I was planning on getting my tourist visa and temporary vehicle import permit in Ensenada yesterday. I got my tourist visa no problem, and the staff at imigracion said to get the tvip in La Paz before I cross the ferry to mainland. Long story short, i was in Elrosario when @zoerem said tvip is not doable in La Paz prior to ferry crossing. I called La Paz Aduana office and numbers didnt work, surprise. I made the call to ride back to Tijuana to make sure i get my tvip before a real inconevience happens. 700 km blunder… (Tijuana aduana staff says lapaz does currently do tvip’s, dough…) Silver lining is, it’s not snowing and heated gear is in the panniers

Goddamn I’m jealous. I would live to ride to Mexico. I’m not jealous of your 101 trip though- my bike wouldn’t hack that.
