Wind, wind and more wind
This is just off the Pan-American Highway in Chile. The new guy is Marco, a Peruvian riding by himself on a KTM 950 just like Dan's.
The top third of Chile is all desert. After three days of riding and not seeing anything green, we were ready for the scenery of southern Chile.
Ben decided to lose his muffler first though.
After crossing the Andes into Argentina, we hit the flat lands of Patagonia and it was windy!! Riding in endless wind for three full days (2000km) across barren plains does not make for the best riding. By the time we rolled into Ushuaia, we had had enough riding for the time being.
