Peru

We had planned to ride down the spine of Peru, but the weather seemed to be against us and we had rain on most days and some of the roads were damn da

We slept in and headed down the coast late. It was a mix of desert landscape and horticultural land.

We headed up the Rio Santa and found a fantastic camping spot just over the first bridge once you get into the gorge on the gravel road.

We rode down from Hauraz on one of the most stunning roads across the paramo and then down from 4300m to sea level.

After getting a taxi to the bus at 6.30am, we made our way out of Cusco.

When we left our last hideous 8hr border crossing with ecudaor/peru, we thought it would be the last of our border nightmares. We were so wrong.
