After bidding farewell to beautiful Zacatecas, Trinity and I make our way across the Central Mexican Plateau. We head up to an old mining town at over 9,000 ft in elevation called Real de Catorce. Catorce meaning fourteen, the town is named after the 14 Spanish soldiers killed here in an ambush by Chichimeca warriors. At the height of it’s silver mining days, it was a bustling epicenter of over 15,000 inhabitants. Today only 1,000 or so eek out a living here through mine tailings, religious pilgrims to a reputedly miraculous image of St. Francis in the parish church, and of course the tourist industry. Two of the most interesting attractions to me are the 17 mile (27 km) hand-laid cobblestone highway leading up to the entrance of Real de Catorce…and Tunel de Ogarrio, a 1.5 mile (2.4 km) hand-dug tunnel entrance through the mountain to get to the city.
SYNOPSIS:
Everyone said it would be dangerous! They said I could be murdered, that I could be robbed, that I could get really sick. I chose to ignore them and ended up having the most amazing adventure-of-a-lifetime during my 2-week motorcycle trip through the eastern states of Mexico!!! During the trip I’ll be documenting each day, and transmitting the footage back to Jason each night. We’ll have tons of great tips, fun tutorials, and epic stories from the road. I hope you’ll subscribe to the channel and follow along. We’d love to have you along with us!
