Just a quick update for you all: the last two bikes arrived yesterday morning! We can now really get cracking. We spent most of yesterday putting the bikes back together and setting them up, then went for a little ride out to the Tierra Del Fuego National Park. We still haven't been able to get any photos up yet, but when we do, hopefully they'll give you some idea of how beautiful this part of the world is! The scenery is truly spectacular.
Last night was also the inaugural meeting of 'Meat club'. All sorts of meat are cooked in front of the diners over an open wood-fire, and for the meagre sum of 25Pesos (5Pounds) you can eat as much as you like (which we obviously take to mean 'as much as you can'). So during this massive dinner, 'Meat club' was formed.
The first rule of Meat club is: You do not talk about Meat club.
The second rule of Meat club is: no smoking (until after the meat)
Third rule: anyone goes limp or taps out, the meat is over.
Finally: If it's your first night at Meat Club... you have to have meat.*
The plan is now to get everything ready to go today, take tomorrow to go and see the penguins and then head off on Sunday morning with fully-loaded bikes and even fuller stomachs!
* If you haven't seen the film 'Fight Club', this will make no sense. Our apologies!

I fear I'm the only normal one left.
