Shipping bike from Long Beach to Chile, January 2015
This is a first for me- to ship one of my bikes, my KLR 650. I am planning a ride from Santiago, Chile (or Valparaiso, Chile more likely) to Puntas Arenas-Ushuaia, and then to Buenas Aires, then back to Santiago-Valparaiso. I plan to be in Chile Feb 1 and leave South America around March 8, 2015. I will ship the bike from Long Beach, CA.
I am looking for any information you can provide about reputable freight forwarders, how to avoid paperwork nightmares in Chile, what to expect regarding camping or hotels, money required orwhether there may be ATMs in the larger cities, and recommended "must see" sights along the route.
If anyone will be doing this route at roughly the same time I would also appreciate the company.
Thanks.
David
