Finished my Trip
 

Hey guys, I finally finished my South America trip. I sold my bike in Paraguay (was a lot harder than I thought, $3000 for the dispatchio), took the bus back to Buenos Aires, and got on a plane to Iowa last Sunday. It feels good to have completed the trip without serious injury. Life is a little less exciting now but it is nice to start making money again instead of spending it.

Hi Geoff

Thank you for all the stories.

I think it has been a long time since one person causes so much uproar on the site! You can be proud of that (-:

Hope to see you somewhere on the road in another part of the world.

I'm glad you made it back in one piece!
I'm sure your family is happy to have you home and that your moto miss-adventures are finally over :thumbup1:

I'm sure you have learned a lot on this trip and have mature quite a bit.
Congratulations for pulling it off!
Tell your family is say HI!

Mate so glad you have made it back in one piece & thank you for all the wonderful stories & moments of anguish to.

Cheers Mojo

Que viva el gato

You've certainly had yourself an adventure and kept us all amused. Good luck

aaarrrgghhhRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!:stormy::ban::stormy ::stormy::stormy:


I just went to your site to read a great story and I found my PET HATE!!!! DARK TEXT ON A DARK BACKGROUND IS FU'~~/$%ING IMPOSSIBLE TO READ ON MOST COMPUTER SCREENS.

This should be a criminal offense and anyone who does it should be put up against a wall and shot. No exceptions, It's the only way to stamp this out. Same with light text on a light background. Rant over.

Hey SalCar, thanks, I was surprised that my parents knew about your motorcycle tourist business. I guess they continued to follow the HUBB.

Thanks Mojo, no problem.

Hey Karl, a 2001 or newer BMW bike? Not in 100 years. I think they are fine to drive at home but god forbid you have problems on the road. $$$ I am bikeless at the moment but always have my eye out for a good deal.
Hmmm, I have not had any other complaints about this. Blue is my favorite color so I can not change. Sorry.

Enjoyed reading your stories.

I´m finishing up 7 months in the saddle here in Brazil as well.

I´ll miss logging in to HU and exclaiming "What damn fool thing has he done now"

;-)

Oh, and I still owe you a beer for tipping me off about the cops at KM341.

Great job Gatogato, you did it and no one can take it away from you.

All the best in the future. :smartass:

hey, gato....just a note to say thanks for the info on Belize...will read more of your trip when I can...my trip will be easier thanks to your insights:clap:!

Tricky call, but my personal "pet hate" is people who have "pet hates" but can't spell their arguments against them. For example, "criminal offense". Hasta luego!
