HUBBers and dreamers!


One of the side things I like do here in Peru is to offer to buy the best Chinese bikes (they are getting better and better) for riders who want to ride SA in a budget way, change and reenforce a few things to prep them for trips...

This is a FREE service (which means you cover the purchase of the bike up front, costs of paperwork, prepping the bike, etc, but I make no profit on it). I do this so that more budget folks can experience this beautiful country of Peru (that has adopted me) ON A BIKE!

Advantages over going it on your own:

(1) You won't break down because I've already gone over and bettered certain things. I have many insights on prepping that Chinese bike that will save you ALOT of possible headaches (This is a foto of an on/off road 250cc model I recommend... but there are many others).



No worrying about the quality of the machine or waiting 2 weeks before you can start!

(2) You will already have a license plate, papers, and insurance (in my name!) to start your journey! The Peruvian police don't care who's name the bike is in (within Peru) as long as you have all the papers and insurance! No worrying about the quality of the machine or how to waste time waiting for paperwork!

You just go sign some papers with me here in Huanuco (2 hrs), then you take off and I send the new papers (the ones IN YOUR NAME! ) to you near the border of your choice! I live in the middle of Peru (Huanuco) so it's easy to ride for an enjoyable two weeks (or more) to any of the 7 border crossings....

(3) FREE route and trip advice AND the best maps (and/or GPS download) about ANYWHERE in Peru you want to go! I'm an American expat, Mechanical Engineer, and motorcycle mechanics teacher of 23 years. I've been living and riding in Peru since age 4 ..

(4) If you come back to Peru, I CAN "BUY THE BIKE BACK FROM YOU", by making then make it available to another budget rider....

YES, I will go over it with a fine tooth comb and make it just as good for the next guy/gal rider!



sooo.. It's a cheap way (buy new for $1,200 to $2,000 USD) to hit the ground riding and at the end of your (well advised) trip, and a way you can get the better part of your investment back!!

We'll celebrate the start of your EPIC JOURNEY with (just) a few ! (the night BEFORE of course ).
