hi,
We’re playing with the thought of cycling Central & South America, soon.
We have around a year.
Many questions arise, here are a few important ones:
1. Is it safe to travel this way? Muggers, robbery, etc.
2. Gal (my better half) is far from an expert cyclist, though in very good shape. How realistic is her fear of being run over by a vehicle? Will small roads be safer? Is it a possibility at all?

We have a gazillion more questions, but I think these will be a good start.

Thanks,
Gal & Rami.
