Cycling in South America

Unread post by davidb »

Not exactly sailing, but Phil has told me I can share this with you:

We're currently holed up in the chillean fjords waiting for this weather to pass. We have had torrential rain without cease for the past 3 days. I've never seen rain like it. The cycling is challenging. Some tarmac but a lot of loose gravel. And lots of ups and downs. Mostly ups it seems. Today we ride to villa santa Lucia.

I presume you are waiting for someone to spot the deliberate mistake?

Changing the title means that everybody else is now confused except you. A misuse of power if I may humbly suggest.

How do you carry it, have you a bike trailer?
