The plan is a trip through those lovely mountains in South America. I wandered through the lake district of Chile in 2006 and it's one of most spectacular outdoor spots I've seen. I want to go back and see Patagonia at a gentle pace and soak it in as I go. Bicycle pace is the pace for me. The full route will be from Huanchaco in the north of Peru to Ushuaia in the South of Argentina. A little over 6,000 miles to pedal, 108 days to do it in, and a flight to catch with a day to spare at the end.

Looking to the start
Day one will be 26th August 2010. I'll meet 19 or so other people at sea level in Huanchaco and climb to 3,000 metres in the first three days. My thighs will burn so I must lay off the Guinness and get a bit of practise in before I go.
