thanks so much for this brother! I recently drove a rental car from Buenos Aires to Patagonia (just the northern tip really - Puerto Madryn). It was a wonderful adventure but i saw so many people riding motorcycles on those remote roads - even local grandmas and kids - that I knew I need led to 1. Learn how to ride a motorcycle and 2. Commit to the adventure that I immediately came back to the states and started plotting my ride. I love your channel and your sense of wonder! - not just wanderlust although that’s ok too - but your appreciation for the beauty of nature. That’s what’s motivating me to get my shit together and get down there. Thank you!

Myself having an interest in adventuring moto, seeing you in this video was a real appreciation. Spending many moments in the past viewing and learning the photographic tips from your Adorama videos and their store has been very helpful. Thank you I try to understand your stay as best as we all can in these times. Good times ahead to ya!

Yes, she is very interesting and friendly, but Mark complained all the time, being in South America, "in the middle of nowhere" not bothering to be selfish and rude to the Chilean girl, who always smiled trying to be close, but not really what he likes. He'll be happy when he's in the Northern Hemisphere again, and of course without the sensual Chilean.

When you said you were 7 months in Argentina I also remebered another rider/youtuber that was travelling the south americas and was in quarantine there for a long time too, maybe you heard from him, Pedro Mota...

Patagonia is incredible. Is it any wonder that an outdoor clothing company would brand themselves "Patagonia." A slow trip through Patagonia is near the top of my bucket list, but I better do it soon because I'm 63yo. Well, at least, I lived in the US Pacific Northwest (a place which also has an abundance of natural beauty) for 16 years of my life and took as much advantage of that situation as I could, considering that I was working for Microsoft 50-70 hours/week.

23:15 Mountain winds can be wicked. On major highways in mountainous areas of the US, you will often see signs warning of strong crosswinds. (Is "mistral" only a term for the European mountain winds, or any?) In South America, many of these winds end up dumping into the Straits of Magellan. (They are also the reason that it is suggested that the best place for camping in mountains is neither the valley nor the tops but in between.)

I had trouble with wind when I had a GSA. I had to do some travel on the interstate Highway, and winds were blowing,e sideways. I had full panniers and top case. They aren’t very aerodynamic. I got off and took longer side roads home, and that was very nice, in the Ozarks of Arkansas. So I didn’t mind that at all. It was just dangerous in high winds.
