I was just in Belize last Xmas and although the main highways are paved, a lot of the interesting stuff like the mayan ruins are usually miles off of the paved road. I think that you would have a much better time if you had a dual purpose bike because you could then go to those places. In Belize, outside of the major cities, there is a lot of dirt/gravel roads that are in wide use.

Ok, so it seems like everyone is doing this trip on GS's. I'm headed down there solo in my Yamaha Venture touring bike. Will I survive? Obviously I'll stay away from the super gnarly trail roads, but will be on lots of unpaved stuff. Should I just forget all about it and wait till I have an F650?

Neither...its the Belize River. Upstream about 4 miles is where the Mopan and Macal join, at a place called Branch Mouth. This is where the two rivers become the Belize River.

What did you do for water? Did you filter all the stuff you drank or are bottles safe. I guess you could just drink whiskey the whole time... That and milk should get you through a hot day, noooooo problem.

We drank bottled water the whole time. The tap water in Panama City is considered safe too.

What kind of gear did you bring with you? Did you camp out along the way?

We camped out only twice in 3 months. Rooms down there are cheap and we really needed some air conditioning/shower after riding all day.

This ferry is near the Mennonite Colony at Spanish Lookout. But I do not know the name of the river.
