It Happened AGAIN! The motorcycle continues to give me grief and problems as I try so hard to get down the road, but doesn't let me. We take a tour today of the mechanical issues the bike is having, I become an electrician in a matter of minutes, I have the best fast food in the world (spoiler alert---SUBWAY!), I get a nice view and finally make it to Florinapolis Brazil!
After a few days delay due to carburetor issues on the KLR, I finally leave Porto Alegre on the road to Floripa Brazil. My adventure today takes me on the highway, gas stations, toll roads, I give you some philosophical thoughts, I eat lunch, I open my full face helmet on the highway to test it, and I finish the day out with an EPIC DRONIE, the best of the trip thus far!

I drive all day 600 KM from Rio Grande to Porto Alegre as night falls and I go a bit crazy from the monotony of this very straight road.
