The Patagonian Experience

Continue ....

 The most telling stories about the Patagonian are the strong wind and emptiness. I concur that. When I transit this plain, the wind varies from 100 kph to just breeze. You know, the style of riding change when the gust 100kph wind hit you, especialy the cross wind. Like sailing, when you get wind from close haul you just have to do a balancing act - incline riding but when you get wind from stern it just plain sailing. So the stories go..
For miles and miles you see nothing just empty plain, you and your bike. Lonely but this was the time your mind minggles somewhere else. What am I doing here? How small I am compare to this God given land. You learn about yourself.
        Route 40 - the popular route take by the Revolutionary leader Che Guirra was such famous by the South American riders. Hmm..at least I have gone through some parts of Che´s route.
        In summary, the Patagonian is one lonely place to ride and you have to ride there to experience it. Adios!
