Ushuaia Day 35 Jan 13 14

 

Why did I bring the smallest TENT. I have 3 all 3 to 8 times the size I am living in. OH it was because of weight…….should have left the cloths behind…….it is easy to set up and fast if its raining……A slight drizzle when I awoke this am and headed down the hill into town looking for a rear tire……its 8am but the stores only open at 10 am…..in need of a coffee, I locate a small cafe and sit enjoying it to put in time……still lots of time so I head back to camp…..on a four lane street when I hear whistles……look up ahead and 2 beat policia are waving….its then that I notice 4 lanes of traffic coming towards me….Crap I am a one way the wrong way….turn into a bus stop and merge into the traffic hoping the policia haven’t alerted a patrol car….I get away. At 10 am I am at the Moto Store and get a tire for 850 pesos but they don’t install…referred to MOTO PABLO around the corner….drop in and in Spanish he tells us that I have bought an Enduro Tire and that it will shake on the hwy…..he has a better tire and a little bigger than my original….he says he will deduct what I paid for the enduro and for an extra 300 pesos sell me his…I agree and for another 200 pesos he installs……..the place was crazy with BMW, Harley Riders etc stopping and asking to get work done…2 hours passed before I was out of there……….he said my chain wouldn’t last more than 1000k….hope he is wrong………    waiting with Antonio,,,the interpreter
