The wrong way to bike in Tierra Del Fuego

As You may have read from Anna G´s previous post Tierra del Fuego was not and easy journey with the wind in our faces. Below is a few more pics from that windy cold island.


The ferry in had waves breaking over the bow and some steady footwork was required to stay still on the deck

Lookout over the Usuaia national park
Anna still managing a smile after a puncture that ended her ride in the park. (maybee it was the cake and hot chocolate at the cafe). I left her to negeotiate her way onto the bus and another hot chocolate while I biked the rest of the way down the road to the end of the world

Largo Rocha
End of the road. Northbound from here
Snow Goose (really me just playing with the zoom on the camera)

The other end of the road sign
Mirrored Usuaia the calmest we ever saw it the whole time we were down there and that only lasted a few hours


Ushuaia
Ushuaia Fin Del Mundo
The top of the first pass the snow had stopped falling but there was still some on the ground
Our second campsite well hidden from the road
Less HiddenGiving up trying to hide from the road in sight of Rio Grande but the crosswind depicted by the tropical palm in the anything but tropical climate stoped us in our tracks


You could see the storms coming
Guanacos checking out the crazy cyclists
Waiting for our ferry after our rally driving Rancher ute ride to provineer
