I hear there is now a guy in Jaco operating a dirt bike tour outfit. Years ago I did the one based out of San Jose and found it pricey and not up to expectations. I dont think that the best riding is on the Pacifico coast either, but thats only my experiance. I did not have my own gear and used the tour company's stuff. Leather boots two sizes to small had to be soaked in the swimming pool for ten minutes before they would fit and a helmet so big the slipstream would pull it off my head.Still very cool if you can rent a bike . take a map and gps and go for it by yourself. Are you flying into Liberia or San Jose, if the later take note of the locals driving style. It might put an end to any thoughts of riding a bike around period.
