Day 4 (342 Km)
All night I heard it rain, but towards morning it stopped
and around 6 am I went out of the room to fix Scotty’s chain, what was to lose.
After having it fixed, we had breakfast and left the hotel around 8 am and soon
hit the 4000 + meter altitude and stayed there most of the day and sometimes
reached 4700 meters. The scenery was incredible with lots of twistbacks. Our luck ran out and rain came
and soon we were soaked and cold and on top of that the fog became so thick, we
couldn’t see anything anymore.
Towards the end of
the day we descended to Nasca, which had an altitude of 600 meter and the sun
came out again and most of our stuff was dry again before we reached the hostal
down town. They let us parked our bikes in the reception area and were hassled
immediately about the tours available in Nasca,
Nasca is famous
about the lines only visible from the air, who the old inhabitants carved in
the desert and up to today the meaning of these lines has different
explanations why they were made. After a few beers we decided to take a plane
the next day to see the lines from higher altitude, expensive but probably
worthwhile.
