Day 36 (405 km)
Went looking for a bike shop
and found one nearby and told him to change the sprockets and chain and an hour
later and $ 14.00 US poorer, I was ready to go again. Scotty needed to change
his back tire so the guy took us to a friend and there we found out what the
problem actually was with my Brazilian tire. The guy showed me the inside of
the tire and said it was no good and the wall was collapsed and rough and that
caused all my headaches with flat tires in the past, so we condemned that tire
and I went back to the hotel to get the second old back tire I had! 
Around 11
am, we left and tried to make some good time on the road to Uruguay and rode
400 km on beautiful paved road and ended up an hour before the Uruguayan border
in a small town called Mocoreta. Found a small road hotel for $ 16.00 for two,
with hot water, Ac and cheap beer, so the day ended good!
