 The best part of the sick ponchos is that they keep you warm and the thick wool even provides protection in a crash, ha ha Smile
If you really want one, or want more information on the riding here or the famous Inca Downhill race, just check us out at www.KBperu.com

 That place looks like...if you don't have skills of Aaron, then hire at least one porter that will carry a whole backpack of 250mm rotors and brake pads...

 Seems that you don't know very well Peru my friend Smile Here we have much more riding than any other part in the world. From arid deserts close to the ocean to lush forest in the Amazon Jungle. The Incas and past civilizations worked hard building thousands of kilometers of trails

 It is good to see americans riding other than their country, that way they learn that there is a world out there.

 we know there is a world out there...but we don't need to venture out in it. All the best riding is within our boarders.
