Argentina

Buenos Aires

Although I have spent 2 months in Argentina, 6 weeks of those learning Castellano, I have seen little of the country, but Buenos Aires I know pretty well now, and love. I have been trying to buy a bike, but they are expensive and the paperwork arduous.

I'm still reflecting on the city, and the idea of putting all these thoughts I have about the place on the blog seems a tricky at the moment...

Rosario

13 November 2004


Still searching for some wheels, but at least Iīve done my research about what I can and cannot do, about what I do and donīt need. Hopefully the rumours that I cannot actually exit the country with a vehicle registered in my name will prove bogus.

As Iīm not actually able to bike around this wonderful country, and seeing as plans to attend Cream have fallen through I have at the least decided to get out of the city, one that I have, (very willingly), been confined to for the last 6 weeks whilst learning Castellano.

Thatīs why James, Gustav, Axel and I are painting Rosario red. Rumours of the international female hockey tournament sparked our interest, but in fact we have not seen or heard of the sport snce our arrival. Rosario is the nearest city to BA, some 320 kms away, and the birthplace of Ernesto "che" Guevara.

Motorcycling the magnificent landscapes of Mexico, the USA and Canada.
'Sam Manicoms new book! is a gripping rollercoaster of a two-wheeled journey which takes you riding across some of the most stunning landscapes in the world. This enticing tale has more twists and turns than a Rocky Mountain Pass and more surprises than anyone would expect in a lifetime. There are canyons, cowboys, idyllic beaches, bears, mountains, Californian vineyards, gun-toting policemen with grudges, glaciers, exploding volcanoes, dodgy border crossings and some of the most stunning open roads that a traveller could ever wish to see.
