The team meets two more cyclists



After cycling for several days without seeing any cyclotourists at all we naturally then bumped into three in the same day. These guys were Dutch (as one might have guessed seeing the bright orange shirt) and had just started their three-week cycling tour from San Jose. They were headed to the Pasific coast, planning to visit Playa Samara, but were a bit shocked by the chilly weather around Arenal.

We promised the Dutchmen they'd be able to get rid of their long sleeves once they'd reach the Nicoya peninsula, as the weather had been excellent when we were in the area. So excellent, that we'd been actually hoping for more fresh air when we sweated on the dusty roads.

But it looked like all of our dreams would come true, as we were traveling on the cooler mountain slopes and they going westwards to the sun. As we've stated many times before, Costa Rica is an amazing mixture of mountains, beaches, valleys, rainforests and beaches in a very small space. That is, small on the two-dimensional map, but signinficantly bigger in the three-dimensional reality...
