Bike

Descided to rent a bike for the day in order to cycle the 12 km to Playa Ancon a popular beach outside Trinidad. The owner of the bike arrived in the morning and dropped it off at the house before I was up. After breakfast I saw the bike, a fantastic old shopping bike however to seat was metal! Well needless to say before I'd even reached the beach my arse was completely dead, and on my return I thought I would surely die of pain, sunburn and thirst on the hot dry road. Well following that experience I havn't been able to sit down for a few days.
