At Girag office right now..
No need to book, no need to crate. Just show up with your bike. I had to take my windscreen and mirrors off and they want you to arrive with as empty a tank as possible.
Price is 901.38$ - Everybody says that you HAVE to bring cash. I could not get 900$ out of the ATM and told them that I would pay when I picked the bike up in Bogoto, since they dont accept creditcards. First they said that it was impossible, but I insisted and they finally agreed for a 3% "pay upon collection" sursharge, which was 27$.
They are super nice at the office and I am using their computer as I type, waiting for Airbill to be produced so I can go to the customs. They are very busy today, so it has taken them 2 hours so far. But, free snacks, juice and internet is keeping me going.
Talk to Xenia Jurado at the office or her assistant. They both speak english pretty well.
Good luck!
Patrick
