Actually, yes we would just like to write something nice: the example of the last quiet days with our friends that we did not want to let go, that we on the day of departure bargained. Or about the Vendimia, the borders of Argentina and the famous wine festival in Mendoza. Or from our monster stage direction Buenos Aires, on the 1160 km we drove through so flat areas that you see in the morning, anyone who comes in the evening for dinner. Or from the miles of fields with soybeans, corn and sunflowers.
But no, the second to last day of travel will be my last day of travel on the bike. From now on same - transmission failure!
Like the movie "Speed" I try to Steffen, who is now my "Q" drives lead to 400 km from Campo and cities to the hotel, without the need to use the first three gears. At the hotel in Chivilcoy we have a blessing in disguise. Only 160 km from the port of shipment in Buenos Aires, we can not dare to move on with this bike, because with every meter increases the chance that it is to block the drive. The owner Eduardo has brought us on the border between Chile and Argentina to hold and gave us his business card. We should necessarily come with him, he wanted to know everything about our trip to Peru, he wished to do so with two friends and make the cars too.
soon as we talk about our bad luck is Eduardo and our concerns clear to him that me and my GS tomorrow he drives his Fiat Ducato to Buenos Aires - with Steffen in tow. This willingness to help and support us once again shows clearly the difference between Chileans and Argentines. image: once again have a BMW-GS are loaded ...
Actually we were now, after over 1000 miles and almost 13 hours of driving, in bed mature ', but nothing since, Eduardo invites us to dinner with his family. We enjoy the genuine hospitality for Argentina and spend an evening - or rather night - and they are but then relieved when we are taken by 3 clock in the morning back to our beds.
