There is a great route right up the center of Peru from Cuzco to Chachapoyas. I've ridden it twice, and even 5 months ago, so if you have any Q's..

Thx for the advice everybody. I´m still on the original Pirrelli MT60 ( Don´t shoot me if I get the type wrong out of my head). But it´s getting quite tyred (get it?) so in la paz i´ll probably go for a new back tyre. The front one is still in super shape and seems a good dual purpose. Don´t know if I would change to a hardcore rallycross tyre. Just don´t know if its realy neccisary for the speeds Im doing. Or am I seeing that wrong.
Ooh and the NXR she´s my baby by now. She´s such a small fighting hellcat. Yes there´s a problem with altitude. But it just keeps going so there is one very happy owner right here. Now if I could just find some new brake pads for the front. After the Salar there done for and none to find in Potosi. Should work out in Sucre.
Peace
