Hippie. Yippie. El Bolson Is Right On!
/0 Comments/in Argentina, South America, Travelogue /by allanJust a few short hours south of Bariloce sits the small town of El Bolson. Once a mecca for Argentinean hippies it has the notoriety of being the first to stake a claim as a “nuclear free” zone and ecological municipality. Intrigued I figured a later start and short ride for a night in this […]
Puerta Veras to San Carlos de la Bariloce
/0 Comments/in Argentina, Chile, South America, Travelogue /by allanThe winds of change didn’t blow my way last night as this morning I woke to more rain. I had to get away from this lake and its magnetism for moisture. I packed my gear in a slow drizzle and headed North. In Osorno I would head east toward Entre Lagos and then over the […]
Rain Rituals in Southern Chile
/1 Comment/in Chile, South America, Travelogue /by allanMy hopes to rise this morning to the massive volcano and tamed reflection rippling in the lake were lost as the obscuring clouds that prevented my views yesterday turned out to be my nemesis today.

Lovely Púcon and Rider Rendezvous
/3 Comments/in Chile, South America, Travelogue /by allanStopping for gas at a service station on the primary route south toward Puerto Montt, I drew the usual crowd of curiosity seekers, each with their own individual gasps of wonder, fear and envy when I shared with them where I was from where I was going. Of course, they were all armed with recommendations […]
Santiago to Pucon
/2 Comments/in Chile, South America, Travelogue /by allanHanging in Santiago has its benefits. There’s good food, drink and all the modern conveniences of home. You can even brush teeth and drink with tap water and throw toilet paper into the toilets. When walking cars actually stop and give pedestrians the right of way. But beyond these simple appreciations, Cristian is a veritable […]
One Year Later – Santiago, Chile
/7 Comments/in Chile, South America, Travelogue /by allanI wonder what the weather is like in central Bolivia today. I’ll bet that road from Potosí to Uyuni is washed out and muddy. For it was one year ago today I took my fateful plunge into the mud of Tica Tica – a tiny Altiplano village in Central Bolivia. So today I remember and […]
