OK, workin' on my list of shtuff ta do...And it's longer than I thought. The bike is stock. Need to bulletproof this bitch.

Anyway...

The learnin' Spanish looks to be the toughest task ahead.

(I have a helluva time with English)

I've got 'cerveza, por favor' but what should be next?

About a zillion posts ago Shiney posted about a learn Spanish DVD. Could it really help an ADD adult?

I'm thinkin' I'll be OK unless I'm dumb enough ta try an follow fjrrider on some gawdawful donkey trail and get lost...

Advice?
Thanks for marking your calander.

Don't sign up for that Spanish program. You will get rope in for a monthly fee. Don't feel bad I tried some of the free online learning sites and determined that I better off just sticking with english for now. I figure I let Don do all our talking (as scary as that may be)! :p

Trust me, rushes: I am the very slowest and most cautious off road rider you will ever share a trail with! I fractured my right distal fibula off road in Mexico three years ago and it took three months for it to heal up. My Young Punk Doctor said to me: "You know if you were 28, instead of 58, this would only have take a month to mend!" I would have jimmy-kicked if I could of, but my right leg was in a cast. Now that I am 61, if I break anything on this trip, just borrow a .30-.06 from a Mexican rancher and put a bullet in me. Shiny can have my M/C stuff! I will not be rushing anywhere! Slow & Easy!

No problemo, Chris. I will get both you and ShinyPartsUp some Mexican wives. They will be about my size, but muy bonita!

Russ, Both Brian Boles and Papa Chuy speak enough Spanish fluently to get you food, fuel and a hotel room. We can even barter with las Putas to get you a discount in a Mexican whorehouse; even though that didn't do us much good when we tried to get SkooterG laid in a brothel in Guerrero Negro, Baja California Sur back in November of 2004. Even with him having a fistful of 500 peso notes!

Also, if we are lucky to get Senor Skip Mascorro as our Guide, he is a native Spanish speaker. Frank "Pancho" Cummings speaks Espanol on a level with BB and Chuy. What I do recommend is to learn a few phrases in the Tarahumara language; where we will be riding, Spanish is the secondary language. These Indians speak a Nahautl Native dialect; almost now extinct and has never been written.

I will work on putting together a few phrases here in Tarahumara and many phrases for you to memorize en Espanol; but just for food and fuel, I don't want you to accidentally order a boy in a brothel!

Spanish is the bane of my existence (any language is). I bought the Spanish lesson thingy and never opened it or canceled the automatic "next lesson for a fee" benefit. So I guess so far it hasn't helped me at all since I haven't opened the box. I'm going to rely on Amigos for anything other than asking where the head is. There's always pantomime -- I'll bring a picture of BustaNut and people will point to the toilet I bet...

I always wanted a Beemer! :yahoo:

Don't worry Don, I won't let anything happen to you. Not while you promise to get me fuel and booze .... I'll pass on the wife and clap traps though.

I was once in Batopilas with fellow riders and was late for breakfast at a restaurant (and I know very little Spanish). I met one of my buddies coming out of the restaurant and I said to him, "All I want is some eggs, tortillas, and coffee." The gal who ran the restaurant overheard and repeated, in English, "eggs, tortillas, and coffee -- si, no problem." (actually, several of those words are Spanish)

You'll have fun and it's really not that difficult (unless, it gets technical...). And the locals, for the most part are willing to try to meet you half-way. Actually, they really appreciate it when you attempt Spanish.

It won't hurt to study-up a bit before you go, tho... :)

Well spoken and very true, charismaticmegafauna! The locals are more than willing to try to meet you half-way and they do appreciate your attempting to speak their language. No Bustanut pictures, por favor! A friendly smile goes a long way in Mexico in starting off any conversation.

This should keep James Burleigh hopping mad this AM! This will also give RenoJohn a seizure.

 
A hearty welcome from San Diego to all you crazy mofo's this morning. I'm off to work. I'm bringing a picture of Barry to the psych. ward to see what happens.

That's sick. :yahoo:

How come it took you so long to think of doing that? Do post up about what happens (if they let you out, after finding that picture in your possession)

 
This is purdy much just an update post for my buddy Jim Burly. ;)

I ordered stuff today to hopefully make my pos klr more better...

Damn, how long we gotta wait?

:)
