    Thanks for bringing that road back to me. - loved it. One of the Touratech panniers dropped off on the way to the border !! We stayed at Baja Caracoles and met two riders (an American and a Mexican) who were turned away from the fuel pumps. Well, after we had our meal, the owners asked me if we wanted petrol - seems he has some in reserve for guests !!! We loved the Cave of the Hands - the weather was better for us - dead calm. Rose is just so calm. ❤

    • @TwoWheelsThreeSheets
      @TwoWheelsThreeSheets  2 роки тому +2

      Too funny! I've actually heard multiple accounts of the owner of that gas station arbitrarily turning people away...
      We found out after the fact that he wasn't actually out of gas, but he just refused to unlock the pumps because it was Christmas Day. He was actually outside running around with his kids while a half-dozen Vehicles were stranded waiting on gas. I guess he figures he can make a bit of extra money charging them for camping... 😅

You guys be safe out there enjoy life to the fullest and keep the robber side up brother man.

    I worry when I have to drive over loose gravel, especially when pushed into long furrows! and mounds. I had 5 km of that on Ruta 40 as I recall. I got pretty good following the furrow/tire tracks. Beautiful country!

    • @TwoWheelsThreeSheets
      @TwoWheelsThreeSheets  2 роки тому

      The answer for fixing just about anything in this part of the world is simply "more gravel"... The worst is when you have oncoming traffic on a crowned road with fresh road base...
      I've seen a few riders put into the ditch by drivers who assume that it's easy for us to simply move off to the side of the road... 😡

    The moral to the story is that the price to pay for sinning is manageable? Nice little section there that I have not done yet. Did you know about the next section south that connects lago posadas to parque nacional perito moreno? Its not on any maps that i know of but can see it in satellite view.
