Nov 6th. * Puno, Peru* We met and took a bus down to the docks, today we were going to see Lake Titicaca. After a few more stops to pick up others, we found ourselves in single file line down by the docks. And herded onto boats. Many were rafted together, so it took some time for them to all...

ITTOG: It was! At this point I had turned the Bluetooth on in my helmet, so was listening to music. And just really enjoying riding sweep. Andi and her dad had coms in their helmets, but the rest of us did not. Or at least, that would work with each other. At times, having coms would be good...

Nov 5, Ride day 3 The day after Machu Picchu was the longest ride day of the entire trip. Most of us were pretty sore after the prior days activities. On our way to Puno we started out by climbing yet again. Into the altiplano, a high desert ( 13k ft, ish) It was very reminiscent of the Alvord...

Do you know the weight limit on the moto carrier? & How does the mini washer do, does it also dry? I am familiar with the combo units in RV's, so am aware of the normal limitations. Thanks

This a great option! GLWS, and bump.

ITTOG: Cusco is like that as well, you have ancient (Inca Pre Colombia,) next to post Columbia, Spanish built, next to modern. And it really does get worse. We rode moto’s, cars drive on those ancient brick roads, and they are solid. The new asphalt, concrete? Rubbish, pot holes, falling...

I always want to stay in Wyoming! I remember when Saratoga was just a hot spot next to the river and some cattle guards, those were the days. Some good memories.

At that point, its not just water and electrolytes anymore. The treatment would be, go home. > Somewhere and rest, with AC, water, food,snacks,protein. And do nothing for at least a few days. Probably a week. It’s almost impossible to recover, while still being exposed. As the body is not able...

This was a full day, dark to dark. After Machu Picchu, it was back to the bus, then we grabbed some food and walked around town. We had a bout 2 hours to kill, then the train back. With a early, and the longest ride day of the trip the next morning. We were all starving after, no shortage of...

It is so cool. I dont think I have any doubles posted. The llamas were everywhere, and seemed to enjoy messing with people.

Things have changed since my brother did it on his Pan Am trip; Since C-19. You can no longer wander all around the place, there are specific routes/tracks you get to go on. Based off the tickets you purchased. This is a bit of a bummer, but it keeps folks not only flowing through but not...

The people watching is fascinating, locals, tourists, people doing photo shoots. With hair and makeup staff following them around. And the clothes, everything from ball gowns, wedding dresses to shorts and flip flops. And no shortage of folks just wanting “ the shot” .And a lot of locals, doing...

Nov 4th We woke early and headed to the train. Getting to Machu Picchu is a journey in of itself. A train takes you to Aguas Calientes. The only way to reach this town near Machu Picchu is by train from Cusco or Ollantaytambo, or by a combination of bus and a long hike to the "Hidroeléctrica"...

The vandalism is heartbreaking.

Was a short ( Uneventful and fun)ride day, with good weather. And enjoyed the day wandering about town and getting some good food. There are some other ruins here, we did not check them out. As the posted price was 170/soles per person. Which is high. We later learned that this was for a...

We rode through mountain valleys and peaks. This lake was a nice surprise, I am not sure what birds those were, ducks of some sort I believe. They were living their best lives on the tiny island nest. More small farms and houses.

Day 2, ( Nov 3rd) we left the hot springs and spent the day on gravel, including some down and backs. The end goal for the day was Ollantaytambo. As we would then take the train to Machu Picchu the following day. And then ride again the day after. We took a hard and tight right and kept...

I picked up a 8.5 x20 cargo trailer this weekend, as my tools/moto/ gear was under tarps in an open sided stock trailer. This will function as a dry, safe tiny garage. The ZR2 did fine, the trailer is only 3600/empty. Bounced around a lot though, it may tow better with some weight?

The days end goal was hot springs. I really, love hot springs>,And was stoked about this. Especially after being on a moto for 8ish hours, and it also being rainy and cold for the last part. Lares Hot springs, It was super packed, and pretty dirty. Elbow to elbow in the few pools that were...
