  • Crotch Rockets in Jamaica

    I have a couple things to admit. #1 I didn’t even know what the term crotch rocket meant until recently. #2 I was pretty scared but exhilarated riding this one! Over this past summer I’ve become familiar with being a bike passenger but never on one of these kind. I’m only accustomed to riding on…

    I know half of you are going to shame me for this and the other half of you are going to laugh yourselves silly and say how this is just typical of a day in my life! Despite how badly this whole situation pissed me off I guess it still gave me something funny to…

    Never before have I seen a rental car’s life flash before my eyes until this road trip. I’ve experienced driving in the Blue Mountains before but not with a car I was responsible for! I was actually laying in bed before writing this and the memories came flooding back so I got up at midnight…

    The Knutsford Express is one giant and very pretty bus in Jamaica!  It’s comfortable, clean, on time, and services all the major points you want to go in Jamaica.  I’ve been meaning to take this bus for YEARS and the time finally came last weekend!  I can’t do anything but rave about this bus service…

    I’m STILL laughing about this one!  I got pulled over for my first time yesterday in Jamaica – for not wearing a seat belt.  First of all this is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard because I’ve never seen anyone wear a seat belt here, second the only other time police have paid attention to…

    This post is more about knowing the right people than flat tires and oddly its not my first post about getting a flat tire in Jamaica. CLICK HERE to see the first time it happened to me. I discovered a couple days after getting this car in Jamaica that my tire had a slow leak…

    Now that I’ve experienced every possible way to get around in Jamaica I guess it’s time to compare! The only thing I’ve not done is the Knutsford Express which I intend to do just for kicks one day, and because it’s more comfy than the minibus 😀 **2017 Edit** I have since done the Knutsford…

If you’re…

    Car Horns in Jamaica My first time in Jamaica I thought they had the rudest road manners on the planet! My second time, after touring half the island as a passenger, I was enlightened to the entire unwritten code of the horn honk. My fourteenth time I became part of the road and in turn part…

    The night we were driving around in the Blue Mountains was a harrowing experience! Yes the roads in the country in Jamaica are bad, but they’re nothing compared to roads in the Blue mountains! And if you have to do them in the dark it’s ten times worse. I will try to give you the…
