Its simply an attempt to get my money back at this point. We will see what happens.

May just have to chalk this one up to experience. Several hundred dollar lessons tend to stick with an individual!!

Thought I left most of my dumbass decision making and mistakes behind in my 20's. Good to see I remain consistent in my 30's

Funny too cause I checked the VIN about 5 times!!!!
It could get worse. Read the fine print on your insurance policy, if you have one. If your policy is the same as mine, your bike will not be covered if the TVIP is expired .

Let me dig through some e-mails and I will send you the contact info for a Lawyer in Guadalajara that Kiko put me in touch with. He has a way of extending TVIPs for people with FM3 visas. He may be able to do the same for you with your tourist visa, but you will have to ask him. He speaks perfect English.

Suerte Amigo

Yes.
And during it I plan to be in Oaxaca.
Maybe you'll visit a cigar factory! Wear a Che shirt and pretend you are in Cuba, comrade. LOL!

Actually, I'll probably attend for the goodie bag and see if the president of the club I used to belong to was serious when he asked me for some routing suggestions, a month ago. The Mystery Rider still knows the secret handshake for that group.

Meanwhile, I've got this daiquiri recipe that needs a little fine tuning, and this book about a civil war, a bullfight or two, some loose women, some tight escapes, and some bells ringing, needs an editor.

How about we go rogue and plan an Anit-Rally rally? Stick it to the man! Fight the good fight! Protest against group rides to restaurants! We could have a secret handshake and arm-wrestle to see who pays the tab at the Mera Madre!

MM, you read my mind; we'll be reverse snobs going on our own groovy little rides and eating breakfast out in the sticks. While they eat mass produced rubber pollo, we'll go to that Argie futbol player's place and eat lomo with Malbec. It will be grand.

We'll all get together and build a big wooden GS1200, get inside and pay some of the local Harley guys to push us up to the doors of the Camino Real hotel.
If the plan fails, the idea was Bob Loblaw's!
This is how the Crusades started.
