Petrol Stations going down to Patagonia & TDF
 
Hi,

Im going down from BA to TDF on my Africa Twin. I have fitted a 56 ltr petrol tank. Should I have any concerns about fuel needs and availabilty crossing Patagónia? What about the quality of it?

Does anyone have GPS points for petrol station along the way?

Excellent question, even though i think you should be alright with your oiltanker....

However, I will be going the same direction on a XT600 with standard 14 ltr tank. About 250km reach...

Distances between stations would be very welcome, and so would GPS coordinates...

Cheers

Even though it would be nice to have GPS coordinates for petrol stations.
