Finally I have a few moments to write the blog I have most been looking forward to write! 2 years of really hard work, 140 days of travelling and 70 days of driving have brought us to this moment, and I hope I can communicate to you just how incredible a feeling it is to ...

Dear all, I have a big announcement to make; WE'VE MADE IT TO USHUAIA! We were received in an absolutely fantastic style as we arrived into the world's southernmost city, and the whole day from start to finish has been spectacular! As we are now going out to celebrate, I don't have the time to give a ...

I don't think any day on the trip so far had been so hyped up as today had been. The distance we had to cover was only 380km, but the route was an entirely separate matter. From Rio Gallegos we had to drive 60km south to the Argentina/Chile border whereby we had to reenter Chile ...

As you know from the previous blog post, due to the problems with Chris's bike we were forced to stay an extra day in Rio Gallegos. Well, this is not entirely true because instead of staying here in what is not the most attractive of cities, we were invited to visit Gonzalo's family farm deep ...

N.B. Sorry for the delay in blog updates; Internet accessibility has been non-existent. You'll see why in the next blog post! Today, in contrast to pretty much every other recent driving day, was blissfully relaxed. We only had a 220 mile drive into Rio Gallegos, Argentina's largest southern city, so we could afford to catch up ...

As we had not made our big distance yesterday, we wanted to drive a long leg today which was not only required by our schedule, but also by the fact that there are so few towns in this part of the world; we have to do massive cross-country hops to get down to the bottom ...

As we had not driven yesterday, we were keen to get up early and do a massive leg in order to maintain a good contingency buffer so that we would not be at risk of missing the 15th November target date in Ushuaia. Our goal was Comodoro, 600km to the south east, located on Argentina's ...

We had discovered late the night before that the circuit breakers where we were charging were not able to withstand the current they were rated to, and as such kept on tripping after a few hours. This means that we had to turn down the current we were drawing, and this meant that we were ...

We woke up today in a different world to where we fell asleep, with the rain replaced by a sunny day. From our window we could see a huge lake comprised of the most incredible colours, and snowcapped mountains fringing the shore and depositing meltwater into the lake via a large number of rivers and ...

I remember in yesterday's blog that I predicted that today would be a slightly more interesting drive than the last, and I think that in retrospect, this has definitely been the case! The day didn't start out particularly well as we found out that our camera had been robbed from our hotel room, most likely ...
