New: SHipping bike to Santiago or BA, travel in Argentina
Hi,
I am new to the forum. Lots of useful info everywhere.
I am working in Argentina about 10 days a month form now on including a week plus in Neuquen.
Will be in Argentina for a 3 day weekend each month.
Plan to ship bike to Santiago. Ride over mountains to Argentina and down to Nequen. Leave bike there and then ride when there on 3 day weekend trips .
Plus a couple of longer trips. Alternatively could put bike in BA where I have a garage available in a secure area with KTM nearby but weekend rides seem less interesting.
Will be doing this for 12 months or so then sending the bike on to Australia for next planned posting.
I am looking into shipping and carnet etc.
Bike is a KTM 950s and I know my way around it.
Any input re reliable shippers and pros and cons Argentina vs Chile would be greatfully receved. Am more or less persuaded re Chile as entry point to Sth America because of Carlos de Gavardo and previous posts re Chile simplicity and effectiveness vs Argentina. Yet to make a final decision.
Any input welcome.
