OK, so we're riding Colombia 2 up on a China Bike.

Just got back form Cartagena. Not on the bike as I was down there getting married, but brought a lot of pics. I definitely need to ride down there!

I'll post a link to the pics as I edit them. Love this country!

Congratulations! Married a Colombian?

Yes sir! A "Paisa"!

Great report and pics. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Paraguay

Oh, sweet. I assume, then, that you've tried "Bandeja Paisa". That Paisa country is some of the most beautiful in Colombia!

You're welcome Sandino. It would be wonderful to tour your country someday!

Definitely! We got married in Cartagena, but I was down in Bogota and Manizales a couple of years ago. Loved it down there!

I love the pictures of the lake house, bravo! You'll have to share some more of your riding mojo with the locals this summer, we just did a tremendous Quirk ridge ride tonight, and I definitely thought Raging Squirrel would be in his element.

Excellent RR! Enjoyed reading about your trip after seeing a post you made in the Minimalist Touring Thread (250cc and under) thread. Lots of great information about touring in Columbia, and it's on my visit list now!

I also gave it 5 stars.

Glad you enjoyed it. I too have been inspired to get on the saddle and ride after reading of others' adventures.

Bump.

This RR is too good to be hidden in the archives!!!

You are absolutely correct !!!!!

Thanks for the bump!

Hah, My pleasure. It is one of the better RR's I've seen here! I liked your XR250 multi-day trip too. I've got to say I have not checked out your others...yet.

I hope you're doing well. Do you still keep in touch with Amiga? That was such a cool trip the two of you took!

Yes, I still stay in touch with her. As well as some of the folks we met along the trip. She moved back to Colombia and I get down there for work or travel every couple years or so.

Just got though this ride report, OUTSTANDING !

Kinda makes me want to ship my tiger down there ride some of the places you did.

Great report and great photos. Just got back from a ride down there myself. Colombia is a magnificent country.

Glad you liked it! The riding is endless down there. Do it!

Thanks for the comment! Keep putting the word out about Colombia. Truly one of my favorite places.
