Little interest of Sponsors and much work

We began a year before the start of the trip, we created a Website (no longer it exists) hoping for sponsors. The truth is that we did not received much help, not even the pet food companies wanted to contribute.

We decided to make this trip for us, it would be our own adventure with no sponsorship.

Maurizio and Susana worked hard. During the day they hung on long ropes cleaning high rise windows by night they cooked and distributed pizzas for an American company.

Visiting my grandma, camping and training

The short time that they had left we took advantage of it going in moto to parks and once to the 80 week we traveled kms to nora house (my paternal grandmother). That prettier memories, my grandmother cooked fabulous meals to me and prepared a visit bed to me. Logical that it took care of so much to us, my papi is his seventh son and I the small grandson but.

During six months, we lived in the parcel of a friend in carp with the idea to accustom us the life to the outside (Pope already was customary but Breast. and I not)

We lived like gypsys but very motivated. Four months before starting off, Maurizio and Susana left the motorcycle and began to pedalear to the work and all sides to prepare the buttock, the legs and I to run to leave to lists my legs.

Our great one defied was that Susana tapeworm no experience in bici nor was not very sport either, I the less.

The prognoses of the family were that with luck we would arrive at the Night love song (native City of Susana, 487 North kms of Santiago). They did not demotivate those commentaries to us so that we were already customary to the lack of confidence in our abilities.

New bicis and equipment

My Uncle Mario Nuñez sold to the cost the 2 bicis. During 1 month they designed my to trailer that after many tests it approved tests (although a pair of times turned upside down inside with me). It did not give confidence in the beginning me later was my dear small house. On the chassis we assured a container for transport dogs, with the idea from when we took an airplane I I could travel.

The Lippi company trusted us and I contribute to us with polar bags to sleep, linings etc. They already had supported a trip previous of Maurizio like to many montañistas to the Everest.

I complete month before the great trip was difficult for this dog and their family since my papis, to be able to leave the retirement ready of the city, had to leave me in charge with my grandmother in San Felipe and visited the week ends to me

Whenever moto listened to one thought that they were they. Be astonished when really they happened to look for to me without noise. They came in bicycle and they brought my to trailer.

In October of the 2002 we were ready to start off with all the paid debts, with 10000 documents so that it could cross borders, with two bicis and more than 150 kgs. Of total load and something but of 2500 dollars in travel cheks.

Towards the North of Chile...
