After the flight over Nazca we headed out towards the coast. Within a hour we encountered extremely high winds that were blowing 4 feet high sand dunes over the road. At one point, there was only 2 feet left the road to ride on. Two full sized plows were trying to keep this section clear. Even the 18 wheelers had to alternate from each direction on what little was left of the road.This photo was taken just before reaching the area that the desert was reclaiming.
Further south, we carved through endless twisty coastal roads that split the mountain side, towering over the ocean below. The rest of that day proved to be some of the most spectacular riding I've ever done. The photos below don't even do it justice.
