Talk to Mike at the Casa Blanca Hostel. He'll point you in the right direction.

Have you read my post ?
The one with the link to the firm that sells temporary insurance ?
The firm that has offices all over the country ?
The point of my post, was t let people know it was possible, and where to go.
Yes, we got it for 1 month each, no problems.
I know of someone I sent the info to that used the Cartagena office (info on the companies website). He got 2 months insurance.
You do not need to go to a motorbike shop.
As most people land in Bogota or Cartagena it should be easy enough, entering from Colombia or Venezuela may be harder.
I've also met and spoken to Mike in Cali, and he agrees it is important to get insured in Colombia.
We *really* need a sticky for insurance in South America.
Now wondering where I can buy it in Ecuador :-)
