All Roads lead to the moon Argentina to Alaska & Beyond
So tomorrow we leave a very Cold and dark Scotland for South America, after a few days in Buenos Aires we will hopefully start South to Ushuaia via the Viedima meeting before heading to Anchorage via various places then back South to tour the US. I'll be updating when I can, a trip I've been planning and dreaming about for a long time!

So after a week spent chilling and acclimatising at Dakar Motos nd taking in the sights of Buenos Aires we are finally on the road. A short hop to Azul first to stay with “pollo” at the famous La Posta. This haven for travellers is indeed worth a visit, we were glad to be in the company of Karl, Marriano and his wife Natalia from Buenos Aires. Beer was taken, bikes were talked an we were lucky enough to be there at the same time as the local classic bike meeting, being a classic bike nut myself this was perfect. The weather up until today has been scorchio, last night and this morning its a bit cooler with heavy rain. Tomorrow we set off for the Hubb meeting at Viedma. Already we’ve settled in to the genuine warmth of the locals and the long straight and I have to say sometimes boring roads, we are in Sierra de la Ventana just now, a nice town with a great campsite “Camping Pariaso” just off the min street, the owner is very friendly and helpful and the toilets clean
