Long open stretches of straight roads with not much traffic.
The KTM is having starter problems so Max has been kick starting it or if we can find a hill bump starting it. Today after a navigational break with a very small hill and a push from Jim and Jay saved Max some effort.
Over the last couple of days we've decided to head straight to Santiago, Chile to get the KTM worked on. All and all this will be a good thing. Not having a reliable starting bike in the group is putting stress on everyone.
When we stopped to look for a place to stay tonight we discovered Max's battery was dead, down to 5 volts. So even kick starting won't get it to fire. Jim takes off and finds a Honda shop and place to stay all within a block of where we had stopped, beautiful.
Honda shop thinks it's the battery. We'll see.
Tomorrow we cross the border into Chile another mile stone on the road.
Jim and Max. Navigation stop in the Peruvian desert.
Location:Camana to Tacna, Peru
