Is it difficult to leave Ecuador with an expired bike permit?
My bike is resting at a friend's house in Quito for six months while I work and save money in the USA. The original 90 day permit will expire in two and a half weeks. Is it possible that my friend in Quito could extend the permission with a written authorization from me, or would that only serve to invite unwanted attention? I think I know the answer to that, so...
What's the best way to sneak out of Ecuador? The map I have shows three crossings to Peru. Are there other, smaller crossings without customs?
Or, is it better to go through a big, crowded border, stamp out at immigration and skip customs? Would I have any problem checking into Peru?
Any information specific to Ecuador and its procedures would be great. Thanks.
