Anyone going to Bolivia?
At the moment I'm stuck in Formosa with mechanical problems, but I'm heading towards Salta and then Bolivia, Peru etc. Is there anybody out there who's also riding north and would like to meet up for a couple of days?

LA - California. That's the plan, anyway. But still stuck in Formosa in the northeastern part Argentina. It'll probably take me a couple of months to get to Central America.

I`m in Cusco Tuesday leaving Wednesday I think for Lake Titicaca (only for a couple of days).
After Macchu Picchu will be coming back to Casa Grande if you make it up here. Otherwise may pass you on the road.
Santa Catalina, next to (almost) the Municipal Library, 1 block from NE corner Plaza de Armas (street runs 1 way from Plaza), 2 blocks from Norton Rats Tavern.
It`s simple but very friendly.
PS Jacks Cafe has the best coffee I`ve had in months. Just unbelievable and worth paying the gringo price for a change. It`s well known, about 2 blocks from this hotel

I'm still in Copacabana and staying till Monday - I think - depending on the road situation. Planning to make a stop in Puno on the way to Cuzco. So maybe we'll meet up anyway.
Nice to hear about the good coffee in Cuzco!

Cusco Crud
I may be a few extra days getting back to Titicaca. I came down with el gripe going around Cusco (watch out BigJ). It's got me so stuffed up I have troubles balancing on my feet, never mind on the bike. Maybe tomorrow I'll be ready to ride.

Thanks! I know - just made my way from Copacabana to Juliaca. There were rocks, broken glas etc. almost everywhere on the road - it looks like a war zone down here. I hope I'll to be able to continue to Cuzco tomorrow. Do you know anything about the road between Cuzco adn Juliaca - how bad the situation is? Are buses leaving from Cuzco (going south) tomorrow?
Hope to catch up with you in Cuzco - tomorrow or Friday.
