Ding Dong: Move closer to the front of Class, Bell..

Queretero, Day 4 of 7
Breakfast overlooking a champagne pink sky as far as the eye can see. Queretero is a huge sprawling city with an amazing historic centre. Typical of what we have enjoyed through Mexico. The people are amazing, the streets dusty and beautiful . La Carrera circus rolls on through, every start and finish a cacophony of roaring engines, blowpipes, screaming kids and pumping bass from the ever-present public address system. Visually incredible too with early or late sunkight piercing through gaps in thick mulberry trees. The locals seem to love La Carrera, c 3million of them [apparently] crowding the squares and streets. It seems like more..
Off the Morelia today- a short day however one populated with the famous Mil Cumbres speed section [s]: twisting ravines through forest. My eyes and lips are red/ burnt from oil/fuel that mists through the car. Got to the edge of my nerves c 3.12pm yesterday [every day is lived to the absolute second], as we screamed downhill with some panache as a team. We were up there with the best in class, which was nice. I am thinking of returning to a low 'C ' student today , so will encorage Fraser to adopt a 'Miss- Daisy- goes- to- the- Tea- Shop 'driving style.
Apparently. Ding Dong the Bell is about to chime.
