Day 89
47,069 – 47,502 433 Miles (24,802 Miles Overall)
Mendoza, Argentina – Cordoba, Argentina
After a few days of lounging at the pool as usual like a lizard my motorcycle was ready to go. They ended up swapping the throttle body and doing the valve adjustment so the bike is ready for another 30K miles of riding with no maintenance inside the engine, or so we hope.
Next on the road was Cordoba. I heard it was a nice city quite far from Mendoza. Nice things to see, good food and some night life. The ride there was quite boring unfortunately. I miss the wild views on Ruta 40 with all the mountains. I got to Cordoba and immediately hated the traffic. The streets were narrow with a lot of traffic so I couldn’t cut through anywhere. I met up with a friend I made in Mendoza at his hostel and got a room there. I went out for a walk for a few hours to check out whatever i can but there wasn’t too much to see there! I ended up going out for dinner and we got some delicious cheap steaks along with some cheap house wine and that was my night for me. Cordoba was just a stopping point at this point for my way over to Brazil. I called it a night pretty late and packed everything up to hit the road in the morning. I was excited to see Fabio tomorrow and meet his family!
