CHILE

7th November 2026 - ONGOING

Why Chile?

We wanted sunshine, more of South America and lots of pedalling!

Choosing which place to fly to was made much easier when Molly spotted that ZZTOP (American rock band!) were performing in SANTIAGO in November! Decision made! 

Above:- Beware of adding this to your first burger in Chile! Even our Stokie Ducks lips were on fire๐Ÿ”ฅ !! 

Questions.... Is Chile the longest north to south country in the world? Answer is:- No!

Is Chile named after chilli's? Answer is:- No!

Does Chile sell RED HOT condiments that 'blow your socks off'? Answer is:- OH YEAH ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘Š 

The Journey 

Flight from Manchester to SANTIAGO via Atlanta (USA) Smooth going all trip THEN..... passing through Atlanta Customs Molly is chased by 'ZOE' the sniffer dog!

The smell of previously eaten apples and bananas attracting her to our bags! The Customs Officer kindly allowed us a photo after Zoe had completed her mission! 

A taxi ride using TRANSVIP (recommended by our Airbnb host NELEXIS) was easy and very convenient. 

Our online check prior to leaving the UK convinced us it was not possible to cycle out of Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport 

3 nights in our Santiago Airbnb gave us chance to build our bikes and decide our next moves!
