Chris' shortcut to avoid the National Highway . . .

I know where we are! Riding through a remote village

. . . leads to Erin's puncture in a remote village.

OK, found the hole, now what?! Someday, I may open my own repair shop

On the road to Pokhara, Chris slides out in an oil slick. Nothing major, just a bent crashbar and a few new scratches on the BM

Of course, this all happened in front of a school

OK, so I'm a little shaken up and need a break
