Getting from North America to South America via Columbia

Hello,
I am just starting to think about a future trip to South America via North America. Is there a Thread about this anywhere? Does anyone have any information about crossing the border into South America through Columbia with a motorcycle. Any problems or issues.

Please email or send a private post if needed.

Brian

the two options are shipping by air or sea. i guess the darien gap has been ridden once or twice but on special bikes http://www.rokon.com/about/index.htm and it took weeks. probably the cheapest is a trip across the golfo de uraba on the atlantic side to a town called Turbo.

Around Coloumbia

Several guys over at the Motorcycle Tourers Forum (www.mctourer.com) are planning for a trip from North america to South America. They have been researching the best way to bypass the Darien Gap and Coloumbia. Log in over there and post your questions.
