I was really nervous about doing the "Death Road" bike ride as it's supposedly the most dangerous road in the world. I truely believe that whoever put that name to it has not been to Guatemala!The cycle was pretty easy, and only really dangerous if you're a complete idiot and fall off down the side. Saying that people do die, which is really sad. One English guy died but they think he passed out before he went off the side. His parents donated an ambulance to the region which is a very nice gesture. Weirdly 50% of deaths are Israelis....but we couldn't figure out if 50% of the people who do the cycle were also Israeli. Strange statistic though.
Anyway, it was one of the most beautiful rides I've ever done. The scenery as you can see is beautiful and it was all in all a really really fun day out.
