La Posta - Pollo is coming to Europe!
 

Dear Travellers!

Most of you have heard or experienced about the famous hospitality of Jorge Cuatrochio, called Pollo, owner of THE one place for motorcycle travellers in south america, "La Posta del viajero en Moto" in Azul, Argentina. His newly installed website http://www.laposta-azul.com/ has been developed and is provided by travellers, dedicated to give something back for his continuous efforts for the motorcycle travelling community.

Now the time has come, that we, the former guests from all over europe, switch the roles with Pollo - for once, we got the chance to offer him an unforgettable time in Europe!!

It's not just a plan: thanks to Mika Kuhn, multiple, regular and continuing visitor of La Posta, it's now definite, and here are the facts:

Travelling Dates:
- Arrival 11th of August 2006 in Zurich, Switzerland
- Departure 8th of September 2006 in Zurich, Switzerland

While being mostly in middle-europe during his visit, a highlight for him will be the participation at the "Motorrad Reise Treffen" in Gieboldehausen, Germany. This is YOUR chance to meet him, so I hope there will be big Pollo-Fan-Crowd at the Traveller Meeting -> http://www.motorrad-reise-treffen.de/

MRT: 01 - 03.09.2006
