Because two trips to South America in 2014 was just not enough, I am heading to Bogota in a few days for some moto adventuring. To avoid the "overlanding" and "expeditiony" superlatives, the goal is to ride really difficult roads with really big bikes. Of course, this means unnecessary pain and suffering, but that suits me just fine. Colombia is top of my list for destinations, so Sinuhe and I reached out to Elephant in Bogota for logistics. These guys are the real deal and have no problem torturing their bikes and clients with deep mud, remote villages, rebel territories and even a flight stuffed in the cargo hold of an "unmarked" DC3. . . Where do I sign?
A few images from their last trip around Colombia. We will be essentially circumnavigating the country.
Hell yeah! That looks perfectly safe
Who needs a spa? Mud, sweat and exercise are all part of the plan.
Can't wait
Not a Starbucks in sight. Ok, maybe a few Starbucks frappa lappas would be nice about then.
Will anyone be in Colombia over the next month? Would be great to meet up. Already planning some time with Land Cruising Adventures in Bogota.
Look for posts from the road throughout the trip.
