Hi all, My dad is visiting us here this week, he wants to ride around the city, maybe even to Tigre. I have a bike but he'll need to rent one so we can ride together. Does anyone know of a good place to rent bikes? Preferably mountain bikes (with basic suspension), and with a location in or near...

I'd like to add a dentist recommendation: Dr. Wheeler at the AINCO office, Santa Fe 2844 (right near the Aguero subte stop), phone 4829-0373. I had my two upper wisdom teeth extracted by him (one last week and the other today). I expected it to be awful and have days of pain afterwards, but...

I'm a freelance web developer (newleafdigital.com), specialized in Drupal for several years, now pivoting to Node.js. I used to get most of my work through the Drupal community (monthly meetups in Boston, semi-annual conferences) and word-of-mouth referrals. Moving here took away the in-person...

My favorite malbec under 40 pesos is the Finca Flichman "Roble" 2010, around 25 pesos. An example of quality and cost not correlating closely with wines.

Thanks for all the replies! That KDT track sounds great, I'll check that out. I've ridden past it but didn't realize how cheap entry was. I'll go there tomorrow around 4-4:30pm, does anyone else want to go then? EricM, that San Isidro route always sounds really good, are you planning on doing...

One thing I really miss here is sailing - I see boats all the time, but there don't seem to be any "community boating"-type clubs that let people sail recreationally. If anyone has a boat and is looking for a fellow passenger or crew member, I'd love to join. (I have several years of...

Hi, I'm looking for someone (or a few people) to do some serious bike riding. I have a mountain bike here, I used to race (mountain and road) in college, so I like to ride hard. I've been riding a lot on the bicicenda along Libertador, and at the park between Libertador and Alcorta, there are...

Hi Robert, I sailed in Boston for several years, asked about sailing on these forums a few months ago, and would love to come sailing, as a passenger and/or crew. When do you go out? TTYS, Ben Buckman

We rented from GoodBike in BsAs (http://goodbike.com.ar/) and had a very good experience with them. In our "Planning the trip" post (linked from Day 1) we write about our experience with several rental companies.

My girlfriend and I recently did an 8-day motorcycle trip from BsAs to the northwest - Cafayate, Salta, Jujuy, Salinas Grandes - and back. We blogged about it a little bit from the road and then with longer daily posts after we got back. If you're like to read about it (and see our photos), day...

That's great, thanks! Can you let me know when you're going out?

Hi darby, I just wanted to say hi to a fellow biker. I rode a CB750 around the US for 10 weeks a few years back, went bike-less for a few years since, and very recently moved to BsAs for a year. I'm going to look into getting a motorcycle here if possible (without a DNI, not sure if it is), for...

I just arrived here last week from Boston. I love sailing and was hoping BA (being a port city) would have opportunities to sail. So far the only marina I've seen is Puerto Madero, but that seems to be very exclusive. I've also come across various sailing tours offered, but I'm more interested...
