Cheers fella - glad things are going well for you. Peru is incredible - one of the places I aim to get back to. But be prepared for a drop in driving standards now!

You've just reminded me that I need to load up more border crossing reports.

Ride safe
Pat

You are not kidding, in Puno, free for all!!! Aye get the reports loaded, make my life easier :D Prob going for Girag across the gap, any advice?

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Just wait until you get to Lima!

Girag was pretty easy to be honest - worth sending them a mail at least a week or so in advance to get costs and timings. Give yourself a full day to do the paperwork etc at the airport (they will probably want you there early) before the bikes goes (I was done by midday). And they will want to be paid in cash (so I had to take money out over a few days in advance).

There is something on the blog about this bit already - and I'll hopefully get the next few borders loaded this weekend.

The road from Puno to Cusco is pretty good... but the road from Cusco down to Nasca (I took two days) was one of the best rides of my trip. In case you are wondering, the dogs on the side of the road are waiting to be tossed food... they seem to have their own stretch of road! :mchappy:

Wish I was there!
Pat

Lookng forward to the ride already, cheers Pat :thumbup1:
