Hello Pete,
I am going to Argentina end Novemeber til begining february and will bike along the Argentinia - Chile border along the route 40, and possibly do some side trips.My plan is to bike from North to south, as winds are behind you then.

I will fly in Buenos Aires and go to San Juan or Mendoza.
Cheers,
Rita

Hey Pete,
cool photos! :)) seems you have already gone north to south of Argentinia -chile.
Are you going again? As you say in your reply maybe you go again.

Where are you now?

I have a question...do you think it's necessary to have a GPS or just the maps and compass are fine.
cheers

Hi Pete,

ok..good to know that you only used a map, as I will also just use a map, and not a GPS.

One other question, did you do the pass Los ANdes to Mendoza? Or did you get a bus across? How was it?
Did you do the passo augua negra? from which side?
cheers
Rita
