leaving lima

finally left lima after staying a few extra days....view of cityscape from coast road, even desert looks like rain


plan was to go to nazca and see the lines then head over toward cuzco and macchu picchu. ride out was good start and mostly desert sand dune-mountain riding...good road , good time making. got about an hour from nazca and things turned a bit odd.....first some dude laying naked in the sand along side the road-freak... then pulled in for gas and simons clutch cable broke...shite stranded. what now. saw a truck and asked him to put the bike in back he said ok for $20. done. loaded up the bike and off. luckily it was all close to a town as the rest of the ride had been pretty desolate. got to dealer and he had plenty off cable, thread it in and all fixed in about 10 minutes and charged $1.25....funny how things can go from total stuck one minute to fine the next......
fixed the cable right in front of shop, muchas gracias
road along coast part of the way and stopped for a break near this....1000´s of seaguls beach
