    Day 254: That's it, cycled South America

    24 settembre 2016, Colombia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    The last cyclingday of our trip in south America. There was only 80 kmand a big climb between us and our final destination Medellín. We decided to start cycling at 7 to avoid some of the heat and traffic. But it was already hot. The many road construction made that we had to wait a lot of times. Luckely we could bypass some on our bike. The climb was not to steep and steady. But 6 km before the top Nino got a flat tire. So after a quick patch we made it to the top.

    Being at the top it was only 40 more km downhill to Medellín. So we thought a pleasant warm downhill. But South America wasn't done with us yet. We got the craziest rainstorm we've had so far. So it turned out to be a cold and wet downhill. But soon we found ourselfs on the main road trough Medellín. We survived the 4 lane highway and found our hostel. We did it! Now we need some rest.

    Day 260: Let's get a flight!

    30 settembre 2016, Colombia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    Because taxi's with a bike are really expensive we decided to ride to a hostel next to the airport. Medellin is beautifully situated in a valley. So if you want to get out you have to climb. and it was a tought climb. With our bikeboxes folded on the back of our bikes and our baggs in total chaos the bike handled like a freight train. But we managed to get to the airport. So now we are boxing the bike and getting ready for our flight to Panama tomorow.Leggi altro

    Day 261: Panama City

    1 ottobre 2016, Panama ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    At 6 in the morning we woke up to get all our stuff and bikes to the airport. We were way to early so had to wait to check in. But when the check in counter finaly opend we were the first to be there. There was some confusion about the bikes and the total weight that we were alowed. But after half an hour of negotiations we got ourselfa and all our stuff checked in with only 20 euro's for oversized luggage. Sounds like a good deal to us!

    We were flying in a small fokker 100. A dutch plane build for dutch people. A lot of legroom and a really comfortable flight. After assuring the Doane guys that the bikes were not new. (A quick peek in the box cleared that up prety quickly). We even found a relatively cheap taxi (20 dollars) wich fits our bikes. And before we knew it we were at the hostel. Really tired. The next 7 days we will chill out and explore Panama City. After that it is time to go home!    Leggi altro
