Anyone in Bs As and about to head south?

Hi
I land in BsAs on weds, will spend a while there, waiting for bike and taking in the sights, plus learn a little Spanish.

Using James cargo to get the bike there (very good and efficient so far) and then Sandra at Dakar Motos to help get thru the rd tape.

Would be pleased to bump into any others for a or three and perhaps ride some of the way

Cheers
Delbert

Looks like you´re way ahead of me. I´ll not be getting into town until 22 March - again using James Cargo and Dakar Motos - then south.

Who knows, our paths may cross.

I'm argentinian, and had just sent my bike to Bariloche and I'll be traveling tomorrow on a bus.
The plan is to take the bike on Bariloche, and cross to Osorno, and then from there south to Puerto Mont, Chiloe, And Carretera Austral, and then swith back to argentina ( Ruta 40 on Los Antiguos) ans south to Calafate and Chalten.


Feel free to tag along... We can meet at Puerto Montt, or Los Antiguos, or something like that

Good to hear from you, sorry not to have checked site earlier. I am now in San Martin and planning to go to Bariloche tomorrow morning. Have you already left. Your route is pretty similar to my own plan. How long are you expecting to travel?
Hasta luego
Delbert
