So, what about Peru? (movie)
I had a lively
week. Nazca Indians spread out all over the place at Chauchilla, useless bloodshed at Puquio (boy, do I like bullfights), one of my best bike rides ever through the cordillera de Huanzo on my way to Cusco and an almost fatal crash at Anta when a truck took a left turn while I was overtaking. Life just couldn’t be better. I was a little worried about Peru. How does a sandpit attract so many tourists? This country is a joke, an overestimated phony and I almost sunk in a small depression.

A dangerous afternoon

´t Knekelveldje (the boneyard)
I’m fighting
a cold for the last two weeks. It’s the right nostril that gives me troubles. The wind, now and then a cold sea breeze, came from the right. The right nostril functioned as a wind catcher. No, this is not funny. At the end it started to hurt pretty bad. I had to plug in some napkins to stop the turbulence. My entire forehead was sore, no joke. Anyway, the big time sufferance is history, because after 3000 k’s desert misery I’ve reached the mountains,

An other sandy day

How to stay out of trouble
If you think that one grain of sand is not like the other than you’re wrong.
They all look alike. Man o man what a boring ride in Peru. I’m in Lima now. Wanted to work on the bike but will not. Take my changes while traveling. The coast of Peru is all desert for 2000 k's. I did not know that. Thought this was an exotic and cheap destination, but not today. Probably tomorrow I’ll leave Lima. I have to wade another 700 k’s through this dry shit and than I’ll take a left into the mountains to Cusco, lago Ticicaca. Love the mountains. It’s fresh and there’s lot to see. Well, at least a lot more than this fucking sandbox.

The Sechura desert
Well, if you think that driving an old Guzzi through the America’s is
always fun than you’re wrong. We had to work ourselves down through the Sechura desert in Northern Peru after we left Máncora. It was quite a windy ride. I left the broken windshield in Quito. Now I know why I liked the shield. The handlebars a quite wide and with the headwind it was all hens on deck. The wind was so fierce from time to time that it blew this circus almost into the desert and we don’t like being blown into the desert. For like 300 k’s I had my chin flat on the gas tank thinking about knull ruffs and other kinds of exotic breakfasts.

Confession of a middle aged man (movie)
So we try to write some words in English, although it’s a lot more fun
to write in my own language that’s called Dutch. But apart from Dutchies, some retards in Belgium and some racist farmers in South Africa nobody in the world speaks this colorful language. And Jason wants to know what this circus is all about so today we mutter some words in English. Are you near Knoxville yet my friend? I want you to know that you’re ‘on air’ now with your ‘coming out’ story. Jason is a cool British biker, coming on his slightly modified KTM 950 Adventure from Buenos Aires. He’s heading north to the States to Knoxville of all places.
