Post Motorcycle rental Brasil?

Hi all,

I am currently, working in Campinas, Brasil for about six weeks, and with some time off so now and then.

Does anybody know how I can rent a bike over here?

It doesn't realy matter what kind, but reliable yes.

I have been to local motorcycle dealers/shops (honda/ktm/yamaha) but none of them said it is possible!
(at least, that is what I think they said :confused1

Buying is an option, but then you need a social security number......

Thanks,

A desperate Beemer-driver from The Netherlands.

Ola Mario, would that be Campo Largo da Roseira just south of Curitiba?
If so, that would be a bit of a trip for a , but perhaps I can convince my wife that we need to venture in that direction.
If you are in this area let me know.
In the mean time, send me an e-mail and we can exchange some business plan info.
