Ushuaia Boyz – End of the World

The road in is Ruta 3, the “End of the World” road.

We took it as far as it went, through the national park, and ended up near the green lagoon.

It was rather bittersweet, but knowing that we still had close to 2,000 miles to get to Buenos Aires, it was short lived.

Of course we had to become members of the “Artic Ocean Club”…

Ushuaia loves their title

Rio Grande Boyz

Pretty quiet town, the hotel was one of the worst of the trip.

Had some beers at a local brewery…
Found a spot for dinner
Cleaned up some garbage
Latin America loves Formula 1
The view from my hotel, yes the window had a giant crack in it.

Rio Gallegos Boyz

Since we knew we would be stopping through here on the way back, we spent some time checking out the town. Pretty nice place!

Found an awesome empanada shop

Gnocchis spelling?
No sign for BMW?
More tiny elevators
View from my hotel, you can’t hear it, but the wind was howling like crazy.

Helmetz – Rio Gallegos

Well, didn’t get much video and my camera was dirty… and it broke, again!

The fix this time? How about a mini binder clip forced through the rubber button protector, bent to bridge the solder points I scraped off with my Swiss army knife…

Puerto San Julian Boyz

Riding through the cold and rain all day was exhausting… and damaging to our hands!

Stayed at a small hosteria in PSJ. Nothing to report other than I couldn’t keep the camera straight for some reason.

Found a place to eat, this is where the 8PM dinners really started.

Helmetz – Puerto San Julian

Ok, so probably the worst weather ever. We ended up with salt water soaked through our clothes and couldn’t shake the chills for hours… and Alex lost one of his bags off his bike in possibly the worst place on earth. We had to retrace our steps back to town and then back out. For some reason, the person who found his bag and reported it to the police kept driving south!!!
