Ecuador - Hiking Ruminahui [05:37]
A few days off the motorbike allow me to stretch some limbs. I didn't realise I'd be straining them instead. The great hosts at The Secret Garden Cotopaxi lined up one heck of a hike for me - 4712m is some serious altitude in anyone's book. This video is a change from my riding series, but is part of the wider story! Note: I DO NOT HOLD THE COPYRIGHT FOR THE ORIGINAL MUSIC USED IN THIS MOVIE.

Leaving Colombia and arriving in Ecuador - Adventure motorcycling trip.mpeg [03:13]
Colombia has been relaxing, an adventure, we only probably road 10 days in the month we stayed there and we are now ready for the big ride down to Ushuaia in Tierra Del Fuego/ Argentina. We are currently in the Ecuadorian part of the Amazon jungle, having crossed the Equator. Leaving Bogota we headed south over a magnificent pass between Ibague and Armenia. Climbing to an altitude of 4000m through sweeping bends, lush mountains and small villages along the way. Then after this mountain crossing we straight-lined it south towards Popayan and then the border town of Ipiales where we crossed into Ecuador.
