A good ride 200km across the southern mountains past a lake and then over the border into Chile. Then the tarmac ended and the rain started. It rained and rained and then when it couldn´t get any wetter it rained some more. 100km plus riding standing up (to deal with the potholes and gravel surface) with rain running down both arms. Luckily the heated hand grips worked so at least the water in the gloves was warm. The rest of the kit was fantastic so generally dry and warm though now with webbed fingers.
Everyone OK so far (haven´t been able to introduce you to the rest of the team - Terry and Pamela, room mate Seigfreid, our Colombian guides Micho and Dani and "El Jeffe" Leo - pictures to follow when better access).
Saturday takes us to the Torres del Pine National Park. No internet for 3 days. Another update when back in range.
