    Gentlemen..

    we may have found our next 'James Bond'....
    Can probably do all his own stunts too!

    At least with the ladies....
    May need Pinche Rad's assistance, for some of the larger roles!

    Ok let's back track a week or 2.
    Before any unicorns or Russians entered the story

    I left Pinche Rad in San Cristobal with his broken KTM.

    I was not not looking for Chicas
    Only for some Edventures

    First stop, El Chiflon waterfall

    I saw this girl there. There were a couple of things that attracted me to her.....and they certainly stood out. Got her contact info. She lives in Baja. I think we will be close friends one day. We'll see

    That night, I camped at this amazing place. It wasn't really a camp ground but I slept there nonetheless

    I slept in my hammock because it was too windy for the tent

    The next morning I went swimming in a not so well known cenote. The water felt great. Maybe in the high 70s. It was a good opportunity to clean up

    20210128_092403.jpg

    A cenote is a limestone sinkhole filled with very very clear water. I was the only one there.

    I took the backroads towards the coast. To my surprise the road turned to dirt. It makes sense to ride an Adventure bike in Mexico because you never know the road conditions ahead.

    This may come to a surprise to many people that don't travel much outside the US. But these kind of hotels exist in pretty much every other country in the world.
    I like to call them "Fuck Motels".
    And they are very prevalent here in Mexico.

    What separates them from other hotels?

    First, they usually have parking and a separate entrance for each pair of guests so you can step out of your car and in to the room quickly without being seen
    They are usually located just outside of town.
    Their room rates are usually for 3 or 4 hours only.
    Inside, they are usually nicely decorated with a big shower and cable TV with a free porn channel.
    And like this particular one, the name can be the give away......."Secret Love".

    You have to remember, here in places like Mexico, entire families live together and the families typically frown on having sex at home.......so this is an inexpensive option for kids to get it done or dad to have an affair.
    And it really is very normal thing here......still makes me chuckle a bit.
    I have stayed in them alone. It is cheap option sometimes. They look at you kind of funny if you are alone. I remember one time in Buenas Aires sleeping in one. I was watching some porn channel and when it was late, I turned off the tv. That is when I realized that not all the sounds entering the room were coming from the TV......ha ha ha. It sounded like Pinche Rad was in the room next to me with the 50 kg love machine
    It is best to check in as a couple. I have done that as well. You can better make use of the amenities of the room, like the large pillows and large shower!!!

    I remember seeing some Disneyland looking Love motels in El Chapo's hometown Culiacan.
    If your timing is good, the bed may still be warm!

    Most towns have 2 Love Hotels, 1 before and 1 after going into the town. Perfect for moto's, easy and cheap, but hard to translate if want to spend more than a few hours.
    Although not in Mexico, I was riding into Northern Brazil, Sao Luis, sun going down, just lost my headlight so trying to find a place to get off the road. Saw a sign , turned in and approached the gate, not a good part of town. Not speaking Portuguese, and trying to explain, I wanted to just crash, he finally agreed, I never saw his face, since he handed the keys through a pigeon hole, with a stick.

    Thanks for this report, you guys are making this fun!

    Some places dont even have keys. Just lock the door behind you and get down to business......in your case, it was sleep. Good story.
