Hello all motorcycle riders. I have made my way down the continent to Argentina from my home in Williams Lake, British Columbia on my 1976 BMW R90/6. I have had an absolutely amazing time and am at the point now where I am ready to return home. I am currently in Mendoza, Argentina staying with a wonderful family, and melting into the beautiful comunity here in Mendoza, what a great place. My friends here have offered to house my bike for me until i return to ride on in a year or so but upon asking at the aduanas, nothing of the sort is possible. I have 6 months for the bike, but im pretty sure im not allowed to leave without it, and everyday after the 6 months that i dont return for the bike i will be charged 5 arg pesos per day. Anyways, i have decided the best route to take is to ship the bike from the nearset port, which is Valpariso, Chile. If anyone could give me a phone number or address of any companies that will ship a bike from Valpariso to Vancouver, that would be such an awesome help. I would like to finish my trip, and get down to Patagonia but i have set out twice now only to turn back to Mendoza! I am probably going to head over the mtns to Valpariso in the next few days, so if someone could get back to me asap , that would be awesome. Thanks, and happy travels to all those out there on the road-john
