doing the loop
We have bikes in Uruguay where you can leave them for up to a year. DO NOT overstay anywhere or if you do find a way to get the bikes past the Aduana as it costs an arm and a leg. We got delayed getting back from New Zealand because of our earthquake and the Argentinian volcano so we were 3 months over and it cost about US$3000 to get all three bikes across from Argentina to Bolivia, this after a week of urging the bribe down. The customs officers there wear Rolex and drive Audi.
We have stored the bikes a couple of times in Mendoza at Mudanzas Stucco about $10/bike/week. Very secure.
You can stay 3 months Chile, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru and 6-8 months in Argentina, depending on which crossing you take.
