Exploring Buenos Aires by Motorcycle! (S3:E27)

[@raygregoryride]

Great video my friend thanks for sharing it with us

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Thanks for watching!! 😁

[@andreloshon3344]

the cathedral was amazing.....chad what cellular service do u use traveling these different countries.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

For our cell service, we usually buy sim cards in each country. Some people use e-sims, but we found it too expensive. And yes, what an impressive cathedral!!

[@uponthepegs]

Such a vivid and vibrant city. You just have an instinct for stories and narrative, bringing videos and experiences to life. The border crossing legals are a ball ache! Thank you as always

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Ball ache! 🤣 Thank you so much - we appreciate it!! 🍻

[@MikeJonesadventuretravel]

Great video. Can not believe border controls. We missed this big town

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

I've wanted it to visit Buenos Airea for years... finally got the chance! Awesome city with plenty to see and do! Yeah, crossing the border with that Chilean license plate was an absolute nightmare. Can't imagine doing it on a poder!!!

[@tigercoward]

Great video and terrific cliff hanger. See you on the next vid 😂

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

No, no... thank you!! 😉

[@rick2wheels1214]

Oh....that was great!! Really good quality production and insight into the 'Paris of South America' it all flowed together really well, very enjoyable. Good luck with the red tape!

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Thank you so much!! 🖤🖤 We're getting our butts kicked by the analytics, and our views keep tapering off. I often fear it's my editing style, so comments like yours mean a lot. 🍻

[@Moz42]

What a wonderful city Buenos Aires is, the architecture is brilliant, the traffic..not so much. Wow.. cliff hanger. Cool. Ride well. Cheers

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Yeah, the traffic can definitely get Gnarly but at least the city is designed in a manner to deal with it (for the most part). Thanks for watching as always! 🍻

[@svtimebandit]

Hi guys. I’m going back over your vids as we land back in Puerto Varas Chile next week for our Part 2. Cold and wet south of Santiago so looking at your routes up north. The roads and routes all look very tempting. Not so much the city traffic. Meanwhile, what’s the “Three Sheets”?

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

You've got a ton of great riding in store. I'm jealous!! Three sheets of sailing reference. One day, we hope to continue the adventure by sea...

[@grahamcairn8379]

You both do such a great job of your videos. Hopefully you get past the red tape and get on the ferry. I have a feeling you have but just wanted to keep us limbo. Thanks again for sharing.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Spoiler alert ⚠️ - we make it on the ferry (not really much of a spoiler if you follow us on instagram, but...) Thank you for watching and for the kind words. We appreciate you supporting the channel!! 🍻👍

[@hachewie]

The cemetery was amazing. Damn you left us on a cliff hanger.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Rose and I are both a bit odd... we both love cemeteries, and always have. I love them because they are peaceful, beautiful, and cause me to reflect on life. Rose loves them because she's weird... 😁

[@hachewie]

@@TwoWheelsThreeSheets 🤣🤣🤣 Fair and valid.

[@MrChrisOcean]

Wow… This one is awesome. Even educational. Ride safe and thank you for the video.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Thank you for watching, and for the kind words!! 🍻

[@catmate8358]

High inflation is hell, been through that in what was once Yugoslavia :-/ Feel sorry for the people of Argentina who have to struggle with that crap. I hope you make it to the other side of the river :-)

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

It's beyond ridiculous... The Argentine people and amazing, and the fact that the country hasn't completely imploded at this point is a testament to their intestinal fortitude!

[@amygregfrancisco4372]

OMG. I took the ferry from Uruguay to B.A. in 1976 and got snared in the immigration in Uruguay but Customs on-board confusion. Spent an anxious hour detained in B.A.before it got worked out.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

What were you smuggling in??? 🤣 Damn, I would have loved to have seen Buenos Aires back in 1976... that was the heyday!! How much time did you spend there? What was it like?????

[@amygregfrancisco4372]

I was going to school in Uruguay at the time and a friend of a friend invited me to come visit her in B.A. for a week. I got confused and didn't understand I had to clear immigration on the boat, during transit. So when I tried to disembark and they checked my passport, I lacked the stamp. What should have been a simple matter to resolve started to escalate and the next thing I knew my passport had been seized and I was stewing in a detention cell, scared as hell. Unbeknownst to me, and as implausible as it may sound, my hostess' father was a very high-ranking official with the B.A. State Police. I did not know that so when they asked me where I was staying, I just gave them a name, an address and a telephone number, and said “This is my host. No, I've never met him and know nothing about him” It took about an hour and I'd assume a few phone calls to verify my story. How was B.A. In the mid-70's? Tense. Very tense. The Dirty War was hitting its full stride. This was before your time in Chile and I don't know how much those who lived through it have told you. It was tense in Chile, too Military patrols were ever present and there were sandbag redoubts w/ 50 cal machine guns on many corners, particularly around banks and government buildings. And people were disappearing-up to 30,000 by some estimates before it was over. Socialists, trade-union organizers, and student activists were in the cross-hair. The party went on, albeit with a midnight curfew, but there was definitely an undercurrent of tension. One plus (?) for me though was that due to my being a guest of this family we had a security detail with us whenever we left the apartment. I asked if that was necessary and my host told me, “Oh, don't worry, the chances of anything happening......mmmya, one in ten.” And then he laughed, so I dunno. Looking back, I think the reason things escalated at the gangway was in fact due to the Dirty War. I was a student, my luggage was a ruck sack, and gasp, my hair was long & I sported a full beard. In other words, I fit a profile. Then I tell them I'm here to pay a visit to someone who turns out to be a high ranking police official who I have never met and claim to know nothing about. Enough red flags there to warrant further investigation Really enjoy your videos. Keep on posting

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Now that's a story!!!! I know it may not always be fun when you're stuck in the middle of it, but those are the times you remember most, and the stories you tell most often! No one ever remembers the trips that go according to plan! I've been regaled with plenty of stories of life in Chile during the Pinochet era, but mistakenly thought that the Dirty War in Argentina was in the early 80s... I remember you mentioning that you were going to school in Uruguay during the rugby team plane crash...

[@amygregfrancisco4372]

I was a high school foreign exchange student '72-'73. Went back for another 14 months '75-76 ostensibly to attend University but ended up deciding it would be more fun to make a circuit of the continent by bus and by thumb. I had a front row seat for the Dirty War. Made me really appreciate our American democracy.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

No doubt. For as flawed as our system is, it sure beats a lot of the alternatives!! 👍

[@BikesBeardsAndBrews]

Argentina is like Death Race on the roads lol That was a amazing town. The whole underground cash exchange is just crazy but makes it feel way more exciting. Pretty sure I could spend the entire day in that cemetery.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

You could easily spend a couple days in that cemetery - especially if as, as someone suggested, you reenact the Easy Rider scene and drop a few tabs!! 😳

[@JohnSmith-uy7sv]

you've had the same shirt on for the past 3 episodes. 😁😁 I thought I was bad. but staying in a south florida home in the A/C 24/7 does not require to change much of anything. I am guessing you need proof of ownership of the bike and insurance. What else is there? Not that I am going out of the usa with my 94 honda goldwing 1500 🤣 It's only a highway adventure bike.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Ha ha... I own other shirts, I swear!! 😅 I don't have much room for clothes with all of Rose's snow globes... All you need is a passport, the title for the bike, and a little bit of gas money!! 💪

[@JohnSmith-uy7sv]

@@TwoWheelsThreeSheets at around 40 mpg with 2 carbs and no fuel injection, that would be alot. My old bum can't handle long distance riding anymore. I have no idea how your wife sits on the back like that all the time and so many times just sits there when you stop to do something. She must be a real hard case to sit like that. Or in the long distance bike riders, Iron butt they call them. You forgot insurance too for the bike. So, 3 things. thanks. Now I can sleep at night. 🥰

[@BillyBob-uc9zp]

Hope you dropped some acid in that cemetery?. Easy Rider reenactment scene!!. Fecking official bastardos. More kerching 😪. Thanks for the look around. Happy travels you two 😎

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Haha!! I think we'll save that for New Orleans... 😵‍💫 God I absolutely hate that movie. Don't know why people hold it in such high regard. So F-ing depressing!!

[@daletalaplaya5086]

7,000 souls and 3 Politicos.

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

You must be tapping into some history on the cathedral I'm unaware of. Do tell!!

[@daletalaplaya5086]

@@TwoWheelsThreeSheets No, just trying to be funny. I meant Politicians have no Soul. Love the videos!

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

Ha! I dig it (and agree)! 🍻

[@lipsee100]

Cor ,,you are carrying alot of gear... do you really need such big bikes,,, they are such a pain to do a Uturn,,not for me..

[@TwoWheelsThreeSheets]

That's exactly why I'm kicking Rose out of the nest. She's going to start riding her own bike!! 😁
