January 29
Today was a nice ride through the farm and ranch country of Argentina. It was nice and familiar. It felt like much of the farm belt of the United States. I soon arrived in a very large city with very little direction. It took me a couple of hours to find my destination on the opposite side of town. My destination was Dakarmotos (motohouse) owned and operated by Javier and Sandra. I was referred to the Motohouse by Salvador with www.salcar.net.

A motohouse is a motorcycle shop that takes in travelers and offers them a place for their maintenance, repair, and a place to lay down. Sandra is making arrangements for me to ship my bike back to Dallas via container. We expect it to take 4 to 6 weeks (give or take a month). I'll be back tomorrow for more arrangements, and I'm staying in the Munro hotel just down the street.

There were people here today from Japan, Austria, England, USA, and Germany (that I can remember). She mentioned another country or two that I can't remember.
