A travel story by Ken & Carol Duval
February 2010 Update Argentina
Preparation for our ride north to exit South America began, commencing with repairs to the bike after the last blow-out crash. Parts were ordered from the UK and Australia. We expected time issues but the customs delays were something else. It appeared the parts arrived in Buenos Aries from their separate International destinations in 3 6 days but customs took around three weeks to process the imports and the taxes WOW was all we could say.
May 2010 Update Ecuador Colombia
Departing Banos we filled with petrol and a strange vehicle that had caused a few highway problems on our way to Banos followed us into the garage. These brightly colored road trains are used in many tourist areas to show off the local sights.
