Odyssey to Ushuaia

Description:

"What would make a man sell everything he owns and ride a motorcycle 22,000 miles, from his hometown in upstate New York to the southernmost tip of South America? Some call it craziness; Latinos call it "cojones."". "This narrative follows a young man in his search for meaning, adventure, and the best rum in Latin America. Battling rough roads, careening buses, and bribe-taking cops in 14 countries, he discovers breathtaking beauty as well as what it feels like to hit a truck head-on. Carlstein and his companions - two bikers he meets over the Internet - form an unlikely and comical trio."--BOOK JACKET.
