Need Tire in Peru or Bolivia
All,
I am in Urubamba, Peru right now and plan on doing Machu Picchu tomorrow. I am riding a BMW R1200 GS and hit a massive pot hole the size of Rosie Odonnell's arse. As a result, my front tire developed a bubble that is protruding from the side (nowhere near as large as Rosie's arse but worrisome nonetheless). While I can still ride on it, I really, really, really prefer not to.
Long story short, I need a new front tire (Tourance 110/80 19 Front). It doesn't have to be Tourance but obviously a comparable brand. I've called all over Cusco trying to find a replacement but no luck. Where might I find a replacement? After Machu, I am heading south towards Lake Titicaca and then into Bolivia. Perhaps I will have luck in La Paz?
Any help or assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!
All the best,
Paul
