On our first day at the PalmTree I get an email from Gabriel and Cynthia, it seems the KTM flu epidemic has struck again they're broke down.
We meet them at the dealer along with reconnecting with the South African riders. Everyone is hoping to get on the road as soon as possible. Parts are the biggest problem. Getting anything here, particularly this close to Christmas is a challenge, everyone is hopeful.

Max is waiting for a starter and carb parts coming from the US via UPS International, unfortunately all he can find out is that they are in Columbia, and that they tried to deliver them once. With the help of Thomas he finds out that the best guess is that they will try to deliver them on Monday. We're all hoping they get here so the shop can get to work on his bike.
Thomas as been a great tour guide and translator, hard to imagine how we would get this sorted out without him.
So here it is Monday, Jim and I waiting are for the parts, I have a nonessential replacement rear shock coming, Max is off to the doctors for an allergy test, Thomas is planning our next adventure.
Location:Medelin, Columbia
