Last week was Easter. Big holiday down in South America.
Being that am getting married on 4/20... I decided to take one last mtb trip as a single guy with my downhill buddies.
Flew to Cusco from Lima, for 5 days of riding, eating and drinking.... The plan was to hit 2-3 downhill runs per day, and score at least 10000ft of vertical downhill per day.. runs in cusco are 5000ft-10000ft each.
This is Lares, starting at a mountain pass one at 14500ft below freezing point and finishing at around 9000ft, 30 deg F warmer... one of the many runs to be made last week.
me and my trusty steed
shuttle van
my friend, checking if my gopro was on...
llamas
llamas everywhere!
a little run down the highway in between singletrack... giant mudslide
down from the highlands, into the jungle...
kids as we approached a small town
high five!
hairpins, as we get lower... the arid highlands become jungles...
45mph
my friend, superman-ing his way down the mountain
back in the jungle...
the old city of lares
