Huanuco to Huaraz: Still on Highway 3N and still not a straight stretch of tarmac in sight!

I’m looking very carefully in my mirrors as I ride away, especially to see if B should raise his shotgun in my direction. What I see is A slam his wallet onto the road in mock disgust while B is in hysterics. The encounter made my day!

Previously, I (briefly) considered changing my surname to Broaster and flogging fried chickens, but somebody else had already had the same idea! :-)

I recon you’re getting as bored of reading my little linking missives to my South America Ride Report, as I am writing the report. So, many (anyone care to count?) chapters down, now this one, then 3 to go. Wippieeeee! Thank God for that. Post #158 at The Wife takes on Chlamydia.

BOGOTA, COLOMBIA: The more I think about this RR, the more annoyed I get. I need to get it finished and I lack the motivation. So, fast and dirty, here are some Bogota pictures. Then in the next few days I'll hopefully be able to share Vila de Leyva, Barichara and finally Santa Marta...

Secret spy picture of the new TT 2019 luggage system. As they're now under new ownership, it's time to get back to basics....

When the email informing me that somebody had replied to this thread popped into my inbox and I scrolled down, the first thing that jumped out at me was your username. I was expecting one or more of the words "infraction", "warning" or "banned"! :( Probably for making a joke involving a donkey and TT. (Don't shout it from the rooftops, but the HUBB has a deserved reputation for having a 100% sense of humour lobotomy).

I really wasn't expecting praise! So, muy bad thoughts need to be banished... :innocent:

Glad you've liked reading the report over on the other site. :D

Santa Marta, north coast of Colombia. The final chapter of this ride report.

I sincerely hope you've enjoyed dipping into this story of mine. If you want to travel further afield, stop talking about it and start doing! Also, stop spending a lot of money on random bling out of some random catalog. The less you spend on sh!te you don't need, the more you can spend on gas and beer!

Santa Marta. Did it! One (partially?) clapped out ugly bloke. One (definitely) clapped out ugly motorcycle. 20.000 miles = 30.000 km. Pretty extreme oil consumption (the bike). Extremely loud silencer (the bike... and the man??). A happy chappy. Beats working for a living. Time for a mojito and cerveza chaser...

When you have to cope with daytime temperatures and humidity, you can understand why people come out to meet and chat after dark
