Subject: Punky, Lew & Achi 2 in Bahia Blanca, Argentina

Hi everyone: We left Caleta Olivia last Sunday and rode to the medium sized coastal city, Comodoro Rivadavia. A mechanic at Moto Sur got the nut off the pinion sprocket and replaced the sprocket. We met Ricardo's rider friend Eduardo Ripoll and had a nice chat. Eduardo has a Honda Africa Twin. We also met and had dinner with Aussies Patrick and Belinda, Yamaha Super Tenere riders, headed for Ushuaia and the Christmas gathering of around the world riders from all over the globe. We won't be there, but you can bet we'll be talked about. The following day we rode to a medium sized city, Trelew, in good weather and a little wind Monday. There, we were spotted by a citizen, who called the local newspaper and told them there was an interesting story parked across the street from their office. They printed our story and pix Monday morning. We then rode to a small town, San Antonio Oeste, in decent weather on a so-so paved road. Next day, we rode in warm weather, with clouds on the distant horizon. Rain hit us half way to Bahia Blanca. We got very wet, but not cold. We entered Bahia Blanca, a city of 300,000, in the rain on flooded streets. Had trouble quickly finding a hotel that would accept Punky. Soaking wet, Achi practically sobbed at one hotel receptionist, pointing to soaking wet Punky and got us in. Finally out of Patagonia. Tomorrow heading for Mar Del Plata for a good rest. Then, we will ride to Azul. Then, Buenos Aires.
Later, amigos & Amigas.
