Nice bike, make sure wear protection.
Did you buy this Java bike in Argentina. I have seen a lot of Java bikes in Eastern European countries in 80s and in China, now they look very different.

I have the Full Monty protection mate!
My Jawa is assembled in Argentina from imported components and yes, there is a connection with Jawa-Cz of Czechoslovakia.Could be a licensing agreement, not sure.
Jawa Arg have some great new models coming out.

I made it back at 2130 last night after a marathon run from Cordoba.
In Rosario I got caught by a mega storm and took refuge where I could with the other bikers.
Exciting stuff!
More details later. And there are plenty!
Knackered.

Being a biker and being daft are not mutually exclusive. Welcome home!

Here's a map of where I went.
I went a bit crazy and took the R40 gravel (ripio) road from Cachi to San Carlos and then on to Cafayate.
130 kms of rocks, gravel and sand is not good for a chopper, but we survived.

Awesome. Sounds like an adventure.
