T
he Patagonia region of South America is on the bucket
list of many travelers, and late this summer, my buddy
Randy Commons and I were lucky enough to spend sev
-
en days exploring Argentina and Patagonia on motorcycles.
We spent the first two days riding in Mendoza, Argentina,
which is a little north of Patagonia. After a long day of driving
south, we spent the next four days riding in Patagonia.
It takes about 24 hours to travel from the U.S. to Mendoza,
Argentina. We met up with local hosts Patricio and Pablo
Marelli, who are very experienced off-road riders who own a
motorcycle dealership and a motorcycle graphics company.
