CYCLE NICARAGUA, COSTA RICA AND PANAMA After an extremely long and tiring flight from the UK, we arrived at Managua Airport and was greeted with a beer....at that point I knew this holiday was going to be great!! No rest for the wicked as we had a fairly early start the following day, all of the bikes were prepared in advance which made things really easy for the group. The riding is tough...I dont care what other people have put...Lance Armstrong would have struggled with the heat/ headwinds and terrain in certain parts!! An inspiring trip, which not only allows you to see some wonderful countries, but also to meet some fantastic people in the group you travel with. A very diverse bunch all with a good story to tell over the odd "panama/ balboa...or for the weak hearted Atlas" beers. Watch out for the "electric blue lemonade" cocktail....there isnt any lemonade in it!!
Cycling is a great way to see Cuba, we visited many areas and whilst we did not have a great amount of time in some of the towns we always had time to see the most interesting aspects of the place.
Travelling around was a great way to get the feel of the country and its culture.
Wow! My first trip with Exodus and it won't be my last. My first trip to Cuba and it won't be my last. My first Group holiday and it won't be my last. Taking this trip ranks alongside some of the very best decisions I've taken and I can't recommend this trip highly enough!
