It’s a tough one! Don’t get the wrong idea when we write about tough routes, we kind of actually like it! It’s our fetishism apparently… 😉 So, crossing from El Chalten to Villa o’Higgins is more of a pushing adventure than a bicycle one, but a must!

OMG, I feel like a grandma! The muscles in my legs are hurting, I didn’t even know I had these muscles and now I walk around Torres del Paine as a granny. I even see people looking at me (and probably laughing) when we have dinner at one of the campsites. Elmar is the one who’s laughing the most!

Our latest movie; cycling from Ushuaia to Puerto Natales and hiking the W-trek in Torres del Paine. We saw King Penguins! 🙂

It’s amazing how friendly strangers are… The wind is once again our enemy in this part of the world and with no more than 6 kilometers per hour we are battling against it, while dark clouds are closing in. A car stops and a well dressed woman walks towards us, she introduces herself as Vivina and invites us to stay at her estancia.

We cycled from Peninsula Valdes to Ushuaia; battling the Patagonian winds! Watch our latest movie now.

Into Patagonia! We cycled through the Missiones Provence, dipped ourselves in warm thermal baths in Uruguay and entered huge Patagonia. Watch our latest movie now.

We’ve reached the end of the world! And what better place can you pick to celebrate New Years? Right! So, we set out to Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego to celebrate a new year full of cycling adventure!

Every cyclist will tell you the same: the winds in Patagonia are terrible! And then you think.. “Yeah, right, it can’t be that bad, right?” True.. it’s even worse! Swaying from one side to the other, fall of your bike with a very strong wind gust, the noise! No way to set up your tent here.., yeah, the wind is that bad…

Wow, Patagonia is something else! We visit Peninsula Valdes and see whales, penguins, sea lions and the endless, and I mean, endless pampa’s! We decide not to continue on Ruta 3 all the way down and head inland on Ruta 25 to Ruta 40. Apart from the wind, it was a wise decison.

Usually we avoid big cities, but Buenos Aires is one city we would like to visit. And with the ferry from Uruguay dropping us of in downtown BA, it’s an easy one to enter without all the hassle a big city usually brings.
