            @goosehd yup! Thinking twice before you do something dumb just makes you feel half as smart when it goes wrong. Lol

              …thanks for the laughs gentlemen!! To bring this back full circle, I would rather have made those stupid mistakes and say I have lived, then to spend my life saying I wish…

              My body disagrees with that though… 🙂

                      Kicked off a new bike trip today, YAAAYYYY!!
                      If all goes as planned, this one will be a good 27-30 days 8k km.
                      Heading south towards Argentina and later, Chile.

                      First real trip on the Guzzi.

                      The journey is the objective.

                          Made some progress over the last few days.

                          Day one: home to Sucre:

                          IMG_2827.jpeg
                          Road blocked for half an hour as a car race crossed the road.

                          IMG_2833.jpeg
                          This bike is turning out out to be a fine traveler!

                          IMG_2838.jpeg
                          Houses used to be built of sun-dried mud blocks around here.

                          The journey is the objective.

                              Day two: Sucre to Villazon

                              IMG_2848.jpeg
                              The slit between the two ridges has a mid-size river flowing across.

                              IMG_2849.jpeg
                              This is the other, shaded side. The tunnel is less than 200 mts long. Place is called El Angosto, unsurprisingly…about 20 km km from Tupiza.

                              The journey is the objective.

                                Day three: Villazon - Bolivia to Cafayate - Argentina

                                IMG_2852.jpeg
                                Sits at 2800 mts and mornings are chilly around here.

                                IMG_2855.dng
                                Loved the backlit effect on these woolly alpacas; probably my favorite pic so far.

                                IMG_2864.jpeg
                                At 3800 mts, 9 am is still quite cold when moving at 100 km/hr. sitting still in the sun warmed me up in about 10 minutes.

                                IMG_2870.jpeg
                                A cloud forest between Jujuy and Salta. Now I’m back down to 700 mts. A super dry year is making this usually lush vegetation look quite beaten down.

                                image.jpeg
                                Liked the monotone clay-colored backdrop with a bit of sky. Nearing wine country! Cafayate.

                                The journey is the objective.
