i am an american pastor and i have a house in guatemala city i go there one week a month. my advice to you is do not travel at night . pre map your routes. find your hotels in advance. central america is a wonderful place the poeple are great for the most part but just as the states there are dangerous people and places . you can go to goverment sites for the countries you are going to visit and the sites will warn you of places you shouldnt go

That is very scary and I wouldn't continue further with this. I can see so many ways this could go wrong......
Congrats though and no matter what you do be safe!

1. Travel during the day.
2. If you go to Columbia, you risk your life.
3. Ship your bikes from Panama to Ecuador.
4. Know how to speak Spanish or don't do this... just go to Central America and stay there for awhile.
5. Have a fun and be respectful.
Good luck!

I've been through most Latin American countires on a bicycle. It is NOT dangerous, except for a few patches of highway in Colombia. The not travelling after dark advice is a good idea. The only place that is not all that safe (other than those few guerilla areas of Colombia I referred to above) is the big cities, where you really won't be riding that much in anyway.

You might want to check the back issues of American Iron Magazine, as I think they had an article on that.
Personally, I would stay in the states, as I would not want to go through the hassles of another country, bandits, difficulty in getting parts and gasoline, etc. I recommend the mid-west instead.

I have traveled the route by bus from Arizona to Chile and back but there is an area called the darien gap where there are no roads. You will have to ship your motorbike in Panama to Colombia. Here is a good website to help you.
