Our trip to Ipiales, the last city that on our Colombian
destination.
The trip from Popayan there was one of the more
"intense" rides of the trip so far. Since arriving to Colombia I have
been told that this was one of the more dangerous sections of Colombia.
Normally I take this with a grain of salt, because I normally hear it from 1 or
2 people. But in this case virtually everyone from all walks of...
Today was both a happy and sad day. Sad because it was our
last day in Colombia which has been fantastic for both of us but happy because
we were about to move on to another adventure
We started in Ipiales which is famous for it's cathedral
Santuario de los lajas , a beautiful Cathedral that is perched on the hill side
near waterfalls and over a river. From here we headed into Ecuador where the
crossing was...
Unbelievable day!The plan was to make it to Manizales, Colombia. I have been hearing about this road from motorcyclists since I've started this trip now over 2 months ago. But the reality was that I was NOT fully sure whether I would be able to make it because there has been mudslides throughout Colombia and this area would be no exceptionThe ride was very diverse. I started south in Bogota Colombia at...
This will be the furthest and most direct trips that I have taken in
Colombia. In the process of making it ot Santa Marta I run across 3 landslides
and one relatively major rain storm.
This trips takes normally around 9 hours to do on a bus with no landslides. It
ended up taking me about 7 with. Even with the relatively good time that I was
making I ended up making it to Santa Marta in...
After riding a few weeks here in Colombia my bike needed a little TLC and I took it to the local dealership here in Medellin. The owner Federico, had my bike serviced pretty much on the spot plus they also detailed the bike and had it looking and running like new.When I went to pick up the bike Federico invited me to go on KTM group ride that they were going to...
This was girlfriend and I first big trip together in South
America.
We started off in Sincelejo with the desired final destination for the day of
Medellin. The biggest reasons we ended up covering so much distance versus just
stopping off in between is that we could not find any information online that
really had anything that at least we thought was worth stopping plus from most
accounts we also heard that this area of Colombia tends...
I had such a fun day yesterday dirt biking here in Villa de Leyva that I decided to go again.Par to the course my guide Fabio pushed me to the limits and took me places that I definitely would NOT of considered doing with a 400 lb dirt bike.The ride we ended up doing was much more technical than yesterday, It had single track, steep hills, pseudo obstical courses and LOTS...
I went out today with intentions of just exploring this really cute town of Villa de Leyva and take some nice photos but then I got side tracked when I saw a place that gives tours for Quads normally. (4tri tours in Villa de Leyva)I asked whether I could hire someone as a guide to show me on my bike the trails in the area and they were more than happy too.When...
This is the first part of my trip on my motorcycle through most of South America. The plan is to ride up to the coast of Colombia and make it to the most northern point. I will then return to Bogota, pick up my girlfriend and then we will ride together down the western coast of South America all the down to the southernmost point at Ushuaia / Tierra Del Fuego. From...
This is the second and last day of our trip in Baja coming from Mike's Sky ranch back to Tecate, Mexico. We were all relatively sore from the previous day licking our wounds. Virtually everyone in the group had some sort of fall. Regardless of this most of us rode a little harder. Alan (or no one else) had any major problems with their bikes or ATVs We were all pretty confident about...
This was my second trip down to Baja on a Motorcycle first on a dirt bike. There were 13 of us ranging from around 21- 49 years young with the same goal of getting to Mike's Sky ranch within a day coming from Tecate Mexico.Although many of us did NOT know one another before this trip within the first few miles we realized how tight of a group we were. Alan got...
My Brother and I went ATVing on the north shore of the Big Island through some old sugar cane fields through an "outfit" to go sightseeing for some waterfalls.
This trip started as a an idea for a mini journey to ride from San Francisco to Hearst Castle with an open mind to do and see anything.
Joe and I figured we would start the journey casual and go do a little "warm up" to Santa Cruz. Once in Santa Cruz we realized we were making pretty good time and thought to ourselves, "why stop at Hearst., let's do go to Santa...
