You kick gravel and the engine answers — the Guanacaste skyline opens wide, dry forest and cattle pastures rolling toward distant volcanic ridges. Dust rises behind your Yamaha 450cc as the group threads a farm road, the occasional river daring you to cross and a village of century-old houses stepping into view like a living postcard.
