Taxi Tandem Tour, South America

o a social experiment! I am hoping to create a short film about the trip, focused on both the journey but also about the people I ride with along the way. I am looking for energetic, adventurous, physically fit and sociable travellers to join me along weekly sections of my 8,000km route from Turbo (Colombia) to Buenos Aires (Argentina). Wild camping, riding in all conditions and getting rather disgusting and sweaty will be a big part of the trip so I’m looking for people who aren’t too bothered about that sort of thing. This may be the first time you have done a cycling trip or sport adventure and I am not looking for athletic superheroes, I'm looking for people with a good basic level of fitness who are enthusiastic and ready to embark on a stupid adventure! About me
I'm 23, English and after graduating 3 years ago have been living and working in France and Spain. Spending the last year and a half working in 'Pars Teatro/ Tailor's hostel' in Barcelona and meeting so many great people living out their adventures, I decided that it was time to start my own! I've always loved bikes and adventure, having just completed an 8 days cycle from Barcelona (Spain) to Bordeaux (France), but have always dreamt of doing a long distance trip of several months. Being a sociable guy who likes to chat and have a laugh, the idea of doing a long distance trip solo never appealed, and that's how I came up with my 'Taxi Tandem Tour' idea. Preliminary dates and places (I will be adding more places soon. See the page for the route)
Turbo (Colombia) – 11th March
Lima (Peru) – 31ST May
La Paz (Bolivia) – 14th July
Buenos Aires (Argentina) – 15th September
