Today was maintenance day. Tony stopped by the hostel on his little 250 techno and we all rode into down-town Guayaquil. Was that ever an adventure. We were weaving in and out of traffic and going up curbs and splitting lanes. It was fun I enjoyed myself. We got to the down-town and looked for some part. We needed a chain for dad, handle bars for me and some synthetic oil for the bikes. Since our bike are huge down hear it was hard to find any of that. But Tony was able to pick up some stuff he needed, which was good. We wet back to the shop and did and oil change on the bikes and cleaned the air filters, while Tony was out-fitting his bike for a couple days ride with us up through Ecuador. After we all were finished working on our bike we went and had them washed. After getting them washed we went back to the hostel and Tony went back to close up the shop. We were on our own for the night so dad and I just went to McDicks and watch a movie back at the hostel. We were tiered.
