Default N8te rider in Brazil

Hi all. Just logged on to say hi to the org
A month in to the big trip and chilling in crazy Sao Paulo, Brazil. Missing my SV very much though. Ive seen some amazing roads, but sometimes missing due to landslides. These guys dont use leathers coz its too hot, crazy!

Will try and put some pics up soon. BTW, org site looks black! New?

Take care all

How long did you spend in Bolivia?

You out on business or just travelling?

Hi N8te Rider
Are you staying down in the unruly south or are you going up to see Brazil proper in the Northeast...?

Visiting central and south america. Did the north a few years ago, was gorgeous. This time going across central Brazil overland from Corumba > Iguazu > Sao Paolo > Rio, then down to Argentina and back across land Buenos Aires > Mendoza > Santiago > Chile. Think Rio and Buenos Aires are going to be mental, although a few days ago I managed to join a carnival school and dance in the parade in a town called Igarata

It's certainly a beautiful country. I grew up in North East Brazil and still have a place out there, plan to bolt there when I retire..... You're definitely there at the right time of year, the place is magic over Carnival.
