75 kms without shade, 114 degrees, I sucked down 5 liters of water before reaching the next ice cream shop. Scarry hot.
Finally Patagonia and the Carretera Austral. 1000 km of gravel.... now its all green, cool, and rainy.

Yes!
These are the shots in the arm I like to have!
I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a touring bike myself, and it has been fun to vicariously take the road with you Rocker- err, Peddlemike!
Did you change your saddle? I see what appears to be a change in one of the above photos...
cheers

the Brooks with the springs seems like a good choice. I have the hard one and it's a bit…hard.
