Having done a couple of practice runs up the mountains from Lima, we have finally come to the point where we are able to do a proper adventure trip in South America. And Ecuador would be a good place to start. [Edit: The first couple of days were unfortunately on tar, sorry : but its like 1200km from Lima, and we need to actually get there first! The idea is that we find some good dirt once we are in Ecuador. ]
Im going to attempt a live report, updating when Im able to.
My wife D and I are in Trujillo after our first day.
Lima-Trujillo: 576.4km
Travelling time: 6.5hours
Stopping Time: 2.34 hours
Moving avg: 84.2 km
Yesterday I was still trying to convince my boss I needed to take our bikes out the country, and would he now finally let us go? He had postponed my leave once already - No reason really, just being spiteful. :argue: Given the current market conditions, perhaps I should just shove the job and we could tour the whole of S America. Been giving it some thought.
Pics wil be uploaded after dinner, we are famished!
