I'm leaving Panama on Sept 15, heading south on KLR650. I plan on taking 4 - 6 months, and happy to meet up with anyone along the way (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina).

I'll be down there around mid october. I'll be down there for about the same amount of time. 4-6 months.

Maybe we'll be close one day.

Hi Jett, if you come to Belize take a break in San Ignacio, Cayo. I can offer you a cabana to stay and if you like i show you around here on a nice Offroad Tour.

Hey Guys, I will be leaving November 1st from Colorado. Any other takers? Me, the KLR, and the road. Looking forward. I will be taking a year or more, where ever the road takes me...

It's close to South America time for allot of us. Who is still going to be there? (I know things can change - good and bad.)

I'll be in quito on the 19th, probably stay there for a week or so then south to Peru. I would like to be in Ushuia for Christmas. I have no plans for afterwards - probably spend some more time around Patagonia and then head to BsAs and maybe Santiago (again). Will possibly be sending the bike to Australia or Africa. (Anyone want to split the cost of a Sea Can?)

I am in Canada. I left my bike in Quito in May. Flying back shortly to continue the journey.

Hola Amigos,

I´m in my 20th month of a slow trip from New Jersey, USA. I´m currently in Cuzco, Peru (Oct.15, 2008). I´ll be in Bolivia soon, and in Patagonia by February, at the latest.

Send me an e-mail if you´re in the neighborhood. I`ve met "PeerG" and "El Aleman - Jens" in the last few weeks. It´s always a pleasure.

Kev
