      I’m well aware of how the majority of motorcycle enthusiasts and riders feel about this so while you’re certainly free to share your opinion here, I won’t be swayed. After all, much like our friend Mo, me do finks me own way…

      I’ve got KT on board so now we just need to settle our moving and party debt. This will be perfect for city riding and parking/charging in my back yard…

          @Matt pretty cool bike! I think smaller and lighter bikes are great to explore urban places and the city. You mostly don't need more.

              It may be blasphemy, but two wheels are always better than four and I’ll give you a pass…

              Being in the open air is better therapy than any drug or therapy. I feel better after 10 minutes riding than just about anything else…stressing just about 🙂

                Hey @Aetas ! Thoroughly enjoying these valles! When were you here?

                IMG_2891.jpeg
                Curvy mountain roads…perfect motorcycle enviro.

                IMG_2931.jpeg
                Exclusively 1st and 2nd gear ONLY on this 140 km super curvy gravel road through Aconquija national park.

                IMG_2951.jpeg
                Amazes me how this bromeliad manages to look so healthy and beautiful in such a dry, dusty, windy unforgiving environment.

                IMG_2953.jpeg
                A tasty and hearty ‘locro argentino’ stew at day’s end erases and compensates for any inconveniences endured at altitude. I guess the wine also helps.

                IMG_2966.jpeg
                Hot springs anybody??

                IMG_2986.jpeg
                Never before saw cactus growing as an epiphyte on a tree…. Had to take a pic.

                IMG_3002.jpeg
                I can’t avoid using these rocky monochrome backgrounds for my bike.

                IMG_3003.jpeg
                Beautiful late afternoon warm light in a typical Andean setting.

                Turquoise colored lake with a bit of snow still around it in early spring. 4600 meters, 6 deg C, very windy. Tough ride there and back…Pissis lake.

                IMG_3033.jpeg
                One buddy destroyed his front tire that day…was quite a nightmare but eventually we managed to get him back safely.

                The journey is the objective.

                  @Matt nice one. In 15 years we'll all be on electric (if the planet hasn't fallen into some dystopian horror show).

                            @motojobobo That looks amazing. Pissis lake looks beautiful. Very cool riding at 4600 meters, some serious mountains in Argentina.

                            Love that cactus as well! 😃

                              Typical Andean backdrop, but I just love these monochrome bkgds

                              1a4097da-a861-45c0-913e-938c4fe71984.jpeg
                              One of my travel buddies. I love the framing of the bike and road against the grandiose backdrop.

                              This is Las Lenas ski resort, southwest from Mendoza. This was the last week they are open this year. Still beautiful.

                              The journey is the objective.

                                    Not a road bike… but I picked this 1982 XR 500 up last summer and rip it around off-road any chance I get! It’s no Snowbike… but it’s fun!

                                            Guzzi began lightly leaking oil at the final drive joint. Water had made it’s way in. Drained, flushed and refilled. Not sure WHY it happened. Will need to keep a close watch on it for the remainder of the trip.

                                            The journey is the objective.
