Stop Press Da Tiger is ready to Go 17 / 12 / 18

Just got the Tiger out of the Vets and hes all good to Go HEEEEE HAAAA

It seems to have been  my fault , the battery Connection's were not good , so that's me , oh well its sorted now so lets move on tomorrow to Temuco


Valparasio , San Antonio , Curico to Concepcion Chile 15 / 12 / 18

 We left  Valparaiso and headed  to San Antonio ( approx 90km)(which is also on the coast ) it was a good ride which took us about 3 hrs (only because we pissed around )

San Antonio was quite a small fishing town with a huge Port ,  very interesting , we stayed in an old Hotel with a great view of the harbour . We stopped for lunch at a McDonald's , we met up with a couple of Poms who are Tandem Biking around Chile for 9 weeks

Next it was onto Curico ( approx 220km ) an inland town , again they are pretty much the same , just towns with people living in ,  just like everywhere in the world but they just look a  little different (well maybe we look different )

TRAPPED IN CONCEPCION

Now we are in Concepcion and have still got the problems with the starting of the bike (its just a dirty sensor I reckon ) , we have been here for 2 days and it is going to be 2 more before we can get out of here , I hope
But in saying that its probably the best city or town so far with heaps of people , Colour and  vibrancy ( i quite like it ). So tomorrow I have to take the bike into a moto shop hopefully to fix the problem once and for all
Really thus far the scenery has not been that great but the people make up for that
