"It was a fantastic ride. Much more than we expected. It was also much more demanding that I expected. The BMW 800 was an excelent choice and we loved the bike we were given. Plan on long ride days. 350 kms don't seem like much, but with rain, hail and fog it took almost 9 hours to complete that leg. It was major fun thou. The people at ADV are great. Met Eduardo and he was VERY helpful with all posible details. The only drawback was the darn GPS. But Then again I always had problems with the Zumo units. A minor glitch in an otherwise fantastic adventure. Don't miss Peru. You'll love it."
