2 UP FROM 5 TO 9 - from New York to Brazil

luciosiq · 03-29-2009, 03:01 PM

Brazilian couple Lucio and Paula, residents of New York City, decided to take a break and visit their relatives back in Brazil. The only thing is that the trip is going to be a bit unusual (for non Adventure Riders).
They are riding their V-Strom 1000 from 5th Ave. - New York City to Av. 9 de Julho - Ribeirao Preto - Brazil.
Please join us on this Ride Report.
Tips, suggestions etc. are always welcome. Thanks.

First Leg - NYC to College Station - Tx, where my sister lives.
Adventure starts soon (April 5th 2009).
Let's Ride together !!!

If you come to Mex City contact me. We can guide you into the city, put you up and show ou around. We speak a little Portugues so it would be nice to practive. Boa sorte na viagem. Tambem temos uma V-Strom. Moto muito legal.

Hi,

I'm on the border of San Antonio. You're welcome to stop by after your College Station visit if you need a pit stop on your way to your first border crossing!

PM if interested.

Cheers,
Carl

No route data yet, but if your passing through San Antonio, Tx I'll buy lunch, or dinner or whatever. Can't wait to read the report.

Lucio and Paula,

Great to know about your dreamed trip. The Brazilian community on ADVRider isn`t so big and our marvelous country isn`t so visited from ADVRiders, with exceptions of course. So, it`s a good opportunity to persuade more Brazilians to join this community and make us more visibles.

If you would like, I can give you some suggestions about your route across Peru (South of Lima), Bolivia, Chile and Argentina.

Keep us informed. Ride Safe.
