Also I loved what Rose said about curiosity and adventure and how that can keep our minds young. I have just turned 80 and can't stop travelling and adventuring, it is as necessary to meet as eating. Just been to Big Bend National Park with my son for some off road fun and ride off road here in the UK and soon will be in France again for for TET trails .....AND I lust after the roads of Peru, maybe I can make it before my time is up and if not can enjoy your videos and 'feed' of your sense of adventure. Motorbikes and adventure keep me young and healthy and out of hospital and happy.....you two have many more years of adventure ahead of you and you sure do know how to do it well.
Thanks Rick, I hope so!! Staying active and indulging in new experiences helps keep the the body fit and the mind sharp! And it nourishes the soul the same way good food fuels the body. I'm with you!!
I love your style and the fact that each episode is unique enough to stand on its own. This felt a lot more like a travel log and history lesson than most of your episodes. Great work Rose and Chad. Merry Christmas, wherever you are!
Hello , first time writing in your channel, I am peruvian. I was in Huamachuco several years ago, when the main square was under renovation / construction. In the nearby area is MarkaHuamachuco, a very interesting ruins. BTW, your travel partner looks like Cher, the singer. Her voice and face are pretty similar.
Welcome to the channel!! Cher? That's funny... I haven't heard that one yet! Although, I am a huge Allman Brothers fan, and Cher was married to Gregg Allman for years. So I guess that makes us Cher & Gregg!! 😅
Thank you for mesmerizing and thorough story telling. I religiously follow your story and ride. Again, grateful for the opportunity to learn and witness your journey.
Oh dear - poor Chad, that was a tough few days but hey.....the spirit of adventure took over and off you go again on another great episode delving into the amazing hidden history of Peru and its incredible mountain roads. More great filming and a super BUG....my god the spikes on that things back legs!! Thank you both and a VERY Happy Festive season. WOW!!
You're quite the adventurous couple! Riding along a thousand-feet drop? No problemo! Having a pre-hestoric grasshopper climbing all over me? Problemo! 🤣 Happy holidays to you both!
Best motorcycle travel channel there is. Thank you guys. I'm heading to the UK next summer for the ABR festival. They should get you guys to attend. I'd love to hear ye speak about your travels in person.
Thanks for the kind words!! Chad has written for the ABR Magazine, but they haven't offered to fly us out to the fest...🤔 We'd be more than happy to entertain the offer! 😆
Hope Chad is well, great video and commentary, beautiful mountain views of Peru, take care of yourself, lots of prayers for both of you 👍🥰😍🤲🌹🏵️ ❤ from Lahore 🤗💐🥰
What a treat... I have (some) fond memories of Northern Peru having bussed it for 3+ weeks a few years ago with my partner. We too went from Cajamarka to Celendin/Leymebamba and onwards to finally exit from Jaen to the assisted living village of Villcabamba . We saw exactly one other gringo couple @Kuelap throughout our time there .Been looking at your tasty videos of Patagonia where we intend to be in March, not bringing my Commando.
That's the same border we'll be crossing in the next episode! Not too many venture that way! How much time do you have in Patagonia? Will you be on bikes??
@@TwoWheelsThreeSheets We have a month in Patagonia, we'll rent a car in Puerto Montt... My 850 Norton Commando is older then you with rear sets and flat bars so it stays here ... The Peruvian side of the trip had paved roads and then Ecuador, not so much... our giant bus actually got stuck in the steep slime and we all got out and pushed. Hope you didn't pay for the martini with ants in it @ Chachapoyas
@fffej50 I'm not sure if you plan on crossing the border into Argentina at all, but if you are, make sure that the rental agency gives you the proper "poder" for the car. Too funny regarding having to push the bus! I swear to god, when I was riding South in 2019 during the wet season, I got caught behind a bus stuck on that very road out of Vilcabamba that was getting towed by a tractor!! 😅
@@TwoWheelsThreeSheets we were there during the monsoon season , landslides and serious flooding over the road in places it was impressively bad between Leymebamba and Chachapoyas ... the pathetic wannabe road going to from the border to Zumba plus the weather and man sized bus made it interesting.

My first thought when I saw the giant locust was what would happen if it flew into your helmet. Right off the side of the mountain for me, I reckon. Excellent narration and videography in this one.
it's the micro bugs that getcha,not giant grasshoppers. the same kind of bug you got is what helped a few spaniards wipe out millions. no antibiotics then. great scenery and culture as always. i knew the room of gold story but never would have guessed it was still there. n.
The whole city is full of fascinating (and bloody) history. Few people pass through, and of those that do, few are aware of what an important role it played in world history!
Another stellar installment, well worth the wait. You think it can be hard checking into a hotel with a motorcycle? Try it with a donkey! Really pleased that you're showing ruins. Peru is fairly dripping with ruins, some of which rival Machu Pichu. Visitors will have a much more authentic experience if they avoid the crowds of Cusco and Machu Pichu and instead explore other sites around the country. I await with eager anticipation next week's episode. You'll be passing through Chachapoyas, site of some of Peru's most spectacular--and much less visited--ruin(s).
Ha ha... I can only imagine! 😅 The crowds and commercialization of Cusco & the Sacred Valley definitely distract from the grandeur of the region. I much prefer the small, out of the way sites, which are virtually abandoned and almost completely ignored. I was lucky enough to visit Kuelap on my ride down in 2019, but unfortunately we didn't have reservations (didn't realize we needed them) on our way north, so Rose missed out... 😕
@@TwoWheelsThreeSheets Oh, that's a shame for Rose to miss Kuelap. I've been to both Kuelap and Machu Pichu and Kuelap is the better experience, hands down. I last visited in 2017 with Amy as the climax of a 4 month caminata the length of Ecuador. The cable car had only been open for a month and it felt like they'd just cut the jungle away and exposed the underlying ruin the week before. We spent hours wandering around and only rarely saw another person. Kuelap is twice the size of Machu Pichu and much more interesting. At the end of the day I asked the attendant at the cable car station how many visitors they'd had that day. Twenty five. Compare that to the 2,000 -- 4,000 visitors Machu Pichu receives daily.
@@amygregfrancisco4372 That gondola ride was VERY unexpected, just sorta out in the middle of nowhere like that. There were a few people when I was there in '19, but nothing like the crowds at Machu Pichu!
my first video. Not really fond of all the narrating as apposed to live comments. It is so very very rare to see 2 people on one bike touring. that would be extremely difficult and tight fitting. I guess I will check out some of your other videos as this was interesting and very informative. thanks. From south florida. 😃lake okeechobee.
Thanks for joining us and for the feedback. There's many reasons we narrate in post, but the main reason is that focusing on anything other than riding (memorizing and reciting lines) is distracting, dangerous AND diminishes our ability to be present in the moment. We ride for the love of it. The editing and narration comes later... Cheers & Happy Holidays! 🍻
Speed recovery to Chad, your voice really calms my soul, this narrative about how Francisco Pizarro annihilated the First Nations in Peru, his Emperor Atahualpa, hits very close to my heart, despite the fact that I live in Toronto, Canada. I am from the Dominican Republic, everything we know as America today, started in my little island Quisqueya, with Christopher Columbus, and his finest rapists/murderers/thieves's crew(all prisoners) in October 12 1492, provided by Queen Isabelle herself. It was a tragic day to our history as Dominicans, within 30-50 years, Spanish colonizers wiped, raped, killed, tortured my entire Tainos (500-700 thousand indigenous) ancestors, Chief Anacaona saved her life escaping to Cuba, I have nothing of that great First Nation running thru my veins, thanks to the Spanish crown, they stole our gold, and until this day history repeats itself. I always visit First Nations reserves here in Canada, talk to them, just to feel home, Holocaust has always been present, sorry for the hard post, I know your intention is to show us culture, history, gastronomy, and make our lives easy to carry on. Thanks for the good times.
It's definitely a sore subject... although it seems to be more a topic of conversation in Brazil (re: the Portuguese) as opposed to the rest of the continent. Rose is 25% Native American, amd 65% Spanish... so she is a product of colonization. It's a fascinating, and very sad chapter in history.
Well I guess u got over your bug, no pun intended, so did u have the flu or just ate to much of that recycled food down there, either way glad u got over that hump. In Roses commentary about the awe of your travels and modern day explore, I have for years documented our travels on our bike trips, you know for thousands of years how many has constantly searched for El dorado, that I have always classified our trips especially the incredible things and places we’ve seen, always referring to , Always in search of Eldorado, so while individuals are searching for lost city of gold, it’s always here under our feet, in the beauty we seek, on my tag frame, it is written, always searching for Eldorado, anyway thought u would get a kick out of that, just as you two are always seeking and searching, We’ve found it. Rob U.S.
I'm always amazed by the beauty that one can find in the simplest of things. You're right... that is the gold - that is El Dorado... I love it! As far as Chad's stomach woes.... Likely the lukewarm coffee he was served at the Hotel de Turistica the morning we arrived in Huamachuco. It was likely tap water / well water that had not been boiled. Not the first time it's happened, probably won't be the last... Merry Christmas!
Peru is doing a much better job than Mexico regarding mountain roads...the Sierra madre is in my opinion one if the most beautiful landscapes in the world 🌎 but most of it unaccessible 😮
The highways in Peru generally either follow the historic network of roads established by the Inca or the Spanish or were built to aid in the extraction of Natural Resources. Did the Sierra Madre have a large population of indigenous inhabitants?
I can answer your question about roads in the Peru´s mountains. Yes, you are right. Peru has a tight relationship with its mountains. The Tahuantinsuyo ( Inca Empire) had 4 main suyos ( regions) that went from Colombia to Chile and Argentina. This huge road system called qhapaq ñan ( Inca´s main roads). Cusco was the center called the navel of the world. On the other side, Mexico is not as mountainous as Peru. They have more "flat areas" and Aztecas and Mayas were not really people living in the mountains.
Some say... but keep in mind, this is our home, and we've been living off of it for years. We are fully contained with camping gear & food, and have a laptop, cameras, and a drone to film and make these videos....
Sangrienta colonización? la única colonización sangrienta fue la anglosajona¡¡¡¡ Perú no fue colonia española, era parte de un virreinato y de una capitanía general de España¡¡¡
Yes, Spain colonized Peru from 1534 until the 1820s: The conquest In 1532, Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro and his indigenous allies captured the Inca Emperor Atahualpa at the Battle of Cajamarca. This was the first step in a decades-long campaign that ended in 1572 with the Spanish execution of the last Inca leader, Túpac Amaru. The Viceroyalty of Peru The Spanish established the Viceroyalty of Peru in 1542 and collected taxes and labor from the local people. The impact on the indigenous population The Spanish conquest had a devastating impact on the lives of the indigenous people of Peru. The Spanish forced the natives to mine for silver and mercury, often for little to no pay. They also forced the natives to convert to Catholicism and drove many tribes from their homes. The end of Spanish rule Peru declared independence from Spain in 1821, but it wasn't until the Battle of Ayacucho in 1824 that Spain's rule ended.
