Stuck in Rio Gallegos !
I left Peninsular Valdez 3-4 days ago (I lost count)..
I hit the 3 with the intention to also go to and see some Penguins at Punto Tombo but half way down the ripio, there was major building work going on and they made me turn back when I was only 15 clicks from the coast.. Very pissed off caus its a nightmare doing ripio on Trailwings (deathwings)...
So, I went to Commodore Rivadavia for a night, then spent 2 nights in Puerto San Julian..
Today I rode 230 miles to Rio Gallebos in the worst wind of my life. Truely depressing day. Spent 7 hours doing 45mph in killer head winds on the RTA 3. I have to stay here now as Javier from Dakar Motos has sent me some tyres to collect here at Rio Gallegos. They were meant to be here for me to collect today (friday) but the guy said I have to wait until Sunday
So, im stuck in a uber expensive hotel room waiting for these tyres.. If anyone else is heading to Rio Gallegos, i have 2 spare beds for tonight and Saturday 22nd (maybe longer). Mobile (UK) +44 (0)789 486 0430..
I hope to make Rio Grande for Tuesday or Wednesday next week.. Xmas on the road for me it seems !!
