The Gang Arrives
We’re both currently more than two weeks behind on our writing, but I can’t help but break continuity to declare that today, March 26th, we arrived at our southern destination, Ushuaia. After well over a thousand miles of desolate Argentine grassland, the last 20 miles were incredible glacier-capped mountains and finally, incredibly, Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. We made it.
The hostel we found gave us a bottle of whiskey to celebrate, and it’s safe to say it feels pretty damn amazing to reach our destination after around 15,000 miles. As I write this, I’m raising a toast of our free whiskey to our new friends from the road, those who’ve helped us when we were in need, our friends back home, and all out there reading. Thanks to you all for being your own part of our little trip thus far. It’s been a great run.
Congratulations :-):-):-)
I was sure it would be to cold for you to reach at this time of the year.
If it is not too cold I would recommend to cross over to Chile and go to torres del pine
Did Torres del Pine… Fantastic! I’m glad to finally prove you wrong :)
we join the rest of the family & friends in a toast to your fantastic adventure & especially to your safe arrival!
FELICIDADES Y SALUD!!
love to all
Thanks Cyn! Hard to believe we actually made it. I can’t wait to see you guys when we get back!
Congrats dude!!
Thanks Brosef!
Congrats!!!!!! What a journey! You guys did a fabulous job with this site, felt like I was there with you (but grateful that I wasnt- especially at border crossings). Big news to report too…Having my baby boy on Wednesday morning (April 1st-yeah April Fools baby). So looks like our family has a lot to celebrate right now. Hurry home safely…I’m anxious to hear stories that didnt make it on here. Love you guys!!
So, when am I gonna see this cute boy of yours?? Tons of congrats! We’ll have to catch up when I’m back in Michigan!
Joe and Levi congratulations on your achievement, and for being a great example of living your dreams. How does it feel?
C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S ! :-)
I will be toasting to your amazing achievement, here in San Fran! Thank you for sharing your adventure!
Thanks for reading! Of course we shared :) Seriously glad to have made it, and far gladder that there are people crazy enough to read what we’ve written of the journey! Thank vishnu for friends.
YEAH!! and CONGRATS!! I knew you’d make it. Tried to send you emails but they’re not working. Loved being able to track you and read about the adventure. Look forward to your return.
I’m not sure what was going wrong on your emails, but if you’re using the forms on the top, everything should be working! I’m glad things worked out for tracking, even if I’m sorry our actual posts have gotten so far behind. I hope you’re looking forward to our return considering I’m likely crashing at your place when I get back! :)
“Yo no busco, yo encuentro.”

Spectacular dude. Worth every minute! Highly recommended :)
A very belated congratulations….how exciting!
Agreed! Thanks :D
Hey guys, just wondering what’s your location and exit strategy? Anything for the Long Ride South website freaks?
Yo Norb! Currently we’re in Punta Arenas working on selling our bikes. The exit strategy is as follows:
– Fly/Bus to Buenos Aires.
– Bus to Iguazu Falls.
– Bus to Rio
– Fly Home!
Thanks! Good Luck selling the bikes, and make sure you go to the beach in Rio.
