I could not have completed it in 2016 without master mechanic Andreas Packenham keeping my bike going! I still remember the day he cobbled together my broken rear derailleur pantograph with wood screws scrounged from a spare parts box in the workshop at Selva Negra, Nicaragua! Then my bottom bracket gave out and he replaced it on a rest day in Guatemala. As a result of his efforts, I managed to do EFI of it, my only time on a TDA tour.
