 Okay, so we've just reached the next petrol station and look at this queue. The petrol station is way over there and it's just all the way down. Hi, I'm Lavi and I'm Oli and this is our hero Bumblebee. Together we are attempting a Guinness World Record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle. Join us for season three here in South America. Good morning world, welcome back to the channel. It's day number 279 on our circumnavigation around the globe by motorcycle. Good morning Bumblebee. Good morning Bumblebee, good morning Nika. We're here in a beautiful little camp next to a river in the Andes Mountains in Argentina. Yes, we had actually a really cold night. It was actually a really, really cold night. Yes, yes. Surprisingly cold. But we survived it like real warriors. Yeah, we zipped our sleeping bags together for survival. But now the sun's out and it's a new day and it's warming up. So let me show you guys where we're heading today. So we are here and today we are going to be making our way up through San Martín de los Andes, through Junín de los Andes before heading away from the mountains up on the route of 40 towards Zapala. And if we do well enough, we might even make it onto the next page. So normally it was our mission on this leg to reach Santiago in four days, but it's day two now and we just checked and we still have 950 miles to go. Uh oh. So we'll see how far we can get today and see if we can catch up a little bit distance. Yes, and we have to pack up everything and it's already nine o'clock. So better hit the road. Let's go. Look at this. What a view in the morning. Hey, beautiful. There's some fish jumping up out of the water here. Cool. And we saw a whole family of parakeets up in the tree as well. Beautiful wildlife here. And last night we were joined by this family from Brazil. From Curitiba. In their VW combi with a roof top 10. There's five of them inside there. Hi guys. Nice to meet you. Ciao, ciao. Yeah. No falls in the morning. Yes. It's always a really tough start. First 100 meters is always like whoa, whoa. Okay. Okay, ready to rock and roll? Vamos. Vamos. What a nice camp hey. So cool. Peaceful. A little bit cold but very nice and quiet. Yeah, that's what we said yesterday. We said, oh, we've got to find ourselves a camp by the river. Yeah, and luckily we made it happen. Or better, I overlander made it happen. I love this app really. It's so amazing. Yeah, thanks I overlander. Yes. What are they doing here? What? What is he doing? He's scraping the whole road. Okay. Yeah, but here we go. Back on tarmac. Yes. I like it. Another beautiful lake road this morning. We passed by a lot of lakes in the afternoon yesterday. Because this ride here is actually called the Seven Lakes Road. And I think this is the last of the lakes coming up to this town ahead. San Martín de los Andes on the other side. Yeah, and the lakes are just huge. All of them. And this one as well. I just can't believe it. Like what a scale we are talking about here. Yeah, it's not the Seven Ponds Drive. And the way these roads just hug the cliffs around them is just what an amazing ride. Yeah, but it's very popular route as well. So yesterday we saw a lot of tourists. A lot of tourist towns. It was really busy. And then sometimes you wish you would be back in the desert alone. Yeah, where no one else wants to go. So here we go. San Martín de los Andes. We've got a little marina here. That's cute. Yeah, nice. So there's a petrol station coming at the end of the town. That will be our first stop for today. Because Bumblebee is thirsty. What a cute place. Yeah, and I think it's quite historic. Look at this building here. Look at that. Crazy building. So right here then. To the right here, yep. Look at all those buildings here. How cool. Here, look on this side. Yeah, you've got some chalet style buildings. You've got some traditional old buildings. What a beautiful place. Wow, that was crazy. We went to two petrol stations in this town. And both of them had queues going for maybe one kilometer of people waiting to fill up. Yeah, it's crazy. I'm just wondering what's that about, you know. No idea. What is that about? It's crazy. I've never seen such a queue for a petrol station. So there's another petrol station about 20 miles up the road out of town. So we're just going to carry on through and go to that one instead. Fingers crossed for that one. Yeah. But you can see this area is just massively busy. A lot of people coming to this area, a lot of tourists. Yeah, busy roads. Busy roads. Look, here's another petrol station here. And like a huge queue of cars here. But it doesn't seem like anyone's actually filling up. So I don't know if there's some sort of petrol shortage or something. I don't know. Look, people are even standing outside their cars. Yeah, I don't know what's going on. So we just joined the queue in the next town, which is called Honin de los Andes. And it looks like there's queues at every single petrol station. So I think we're just going to have to wait in the end. I mean, the petrol station is up where those lights are. So we've probably got about 10 or 15 cars in front. So I think we'll just wait, hey? Well, it's crazy. It's absolutely crazy. It's mental. I don't understand. Yeah. Well, time for a break then. OK, so disaster. We just got to the pump and they said they didn't have super. They only have diesel apparently. So I think they've run out. So we're going to have to make our way to the next petrol station, I guess, and try our luck there. They said there's another petrol station in town, one kilometer up the road, Axian. So we'll have to go and probably wait in another queue over there. OK, so we've just reached the next petrol station and look at this queue. The petrol station's way over there and it's just all the way down. So we were having a little talk about the route and then Nikos was telling us that they had some bad road sections on the Argentinian side up to Santiago as well. There's a pass over to Chile, which is just coming up here and the Chilean side is going to be a lot of an easier ride. It's going to save us about a day. So I think we'll cross over to Chile instead. So Nikos has his spare fuel on the side and he's given us a couple of litres just so we can get over to the border, make it over to the other side. And from there it should be a little bit easier. OK, vamos a la Chile. OK, ready for you. How beautiful, how beautiful. There's a huge volcano in the background. It's like a perfect cone volcano. I mean, I didn't really expect that the pass would be that nice and the best thing is no traffic. Oh, look at this. Oh, OK. Should I jump off? I think we'll go in the middle. OK. Some of them are like broken and stuff. Oh my God. Wow, that's crazy. We're getting closer and closer to this massive volcano. So apparently this volcano is called Volcano Lanín. What a beauty, hey? Yeah, it's crazy. Wow. And I think there's snow all on top of it, snow and ice because it's just that tall. Look at it. It's towering above everything else. I think it's our first proper volcano that we've seen here in South America so far. It's very, very cool. Oh, run out of tarmac. Oh, oh. Whoa. It's a little bit of sliding as well, no? Yeah. It is a little bit sandy, maybe. Should we... Air down the tires, hey? Yes. I guess we should, yeah. Yeah. Look at all these beautiful, crazy trees on this road. It's crazy because we didn't see this tree at all in Argentina. Absolutely nowhere. Nowhere. And then suddenly we come up to this pass and there's trees everywhere. But yeah, it's pretty soft here. Oh, man. It's a bit sandy, to be honest. Yeah. Which is not too great. No. Yeah. Really not too great. Oh, my God. Yeah. But I think it's less than the dirt road in Argentina. So I think it's a good decision that way. Yeah, that dirt road up in the north of Argentina near Mendoza is notoriously a bad section. So I think we were faced with a shorter bad section here or an incredibly long bad section up there. But I'm pretty sure the ground here is volcanic ash. Oh. That's why it's all sandy. I think it's from the volcano right here. You think so? Yeah, absolutely. That's cool. Because look at the color of it. It's like a sort of gray, dark gray sand. Come on, Bumblebee. Come on, tires. You can do it. I believe in you. Well, it may be bumpy, but look at this volcano ahead. Wow. I love volcanoes. I love volcanoes so much. Ollie and me, we did an Indonesian volcano tour. And we visited, I think, five volcanoes in like one week. Cool. A little unexpected surprise from our change of route. Yeah, I'm really happy, actually, that we took this route now. Yeah, what a nice surprise, hey? OK, bad news. Nico's tire is flat. Yeah, totally flat. What's that? In a tube. You have inner tube? Yeah. OK, we're going to have to figure out what to do. We're going to use our inflator, see if we can put some air in it, and see if we can continue to the next town. No, it's like zero PSI. It's not even showing a PSI. Why not? Where's the next town? This one is the next town, I think. Do we see? There's nothing before. OK, so inflating the tires was a failure. So actually, the border is not far ahead. So we are going to try and see, or Nico's is going to try and see, if he can ride to the border, and then we can see what to do at the border, whether we continue, try to go to the next town, or if we ask them to call for a truck and pick us up, see how he gets on anyway. Nico's is going to go first, and then we'll follow behind. OK, we've made it to the border. OK, or no? Yeah, look at this for a customs office. Beautiful. Cool. Very beautiful. So now Nico's is going to take off the front wheel, and then I'm not sure yet, if he's going to give us that wheel, and we go and change the tire in the next town, or if he's going to put the new tire on, and we see if we can do it all here at the border. Anyway, it looks like we've got a little bit of work to do. OK, OK. OK, so we've managed to prop it up on this side with a bit of wood, and prop it up on this side with a bit of wood, and then we've got a couple of bits of wood underneath. So now, we have just enough freedom that the tire can spin, and then it can be taken off. The inner tube has a hole, but he's got new inner tube. The drive is really strong because it might bend straight away. Finito! Just like new, hey? Good job, Nico's. Very good job. Vamanosa, chili, hey? Let's go to chili. Welcome, chili. On the move again. Well, that was a bit of a longer border crossing than we were expecting, hey? Yeah, definitely. It's really good that he was able to change the tire. Good on your Nico's. Very, very cool. Let's hope that the tire will be fine now. Yeah. Oh, nice. Ah. Damak! Cool. Bienvenidos a la chili. And this time, for the first time, we had no contraband. Woohoo! They didn't confiscate anything from us, but bad news, it looks like the tire repair has a little bit of an issue because Nico says that the front wheel is kind of bouncing up and down a bit. So it looks like the inner tube or the outer is kind of not in exactly the right position. So I don't know how that's going to go for him, but I think we may have to look for a tire shop in the next town and then they can maybe just refit that tire properly. At least we can ride there at the moment without the flat tire and get there and we'll see what we can do over there. Okay, so we've arrived here in the next town and Nico's is just asking this mechanics here if they can do anything for us. Hola. Ah, próxima. Okay. Whoa, is this the day for volcanoes or what? There's another one. Woohoo! Look at that one. Yeah, it looks epic. It's crazy guys because this volcano in front, which is called Villarica, is actually an active volcano. If you look on the top, you can see that smoke is coming out. Oh, that's crazy. Oh, I think it's bad. Oh man, I would love to live here just in front of the volcano and watch it all day long. Look at it, hey, beautiful. Okay, so it looks like we've run out of options for today. There doesn't seem to be anywhere in this town where we can get Nico's's tire looked at, but we've searched and there's a bunch of mechanics in the next town called Villarica, but they won't open until tomorrow morning. So we've decided to have a camp, call it a day, and we'll head to that town tomorrow, get the bike sorted, and be on our way. But this wild cab that we're going to head to now that we found on Ioverlander looks really, really cool from the pictures. So if it does work out, I am super excited because there's volcano views. Woohoo! Oh my God. Wow, it's absolutely epic views from here. Yeah, we're getting closer to the volcano. Villarica. Very cool. That is absolutely amazing road. Wow. So impressed. And the wild camp is apparently one mile further up the road. So even closer to the volcano. Wow. Epic. Oh my God, I love volcanoes. You can see the smoke coming out the top. So we just went through pretty difficult patch and look up ahead, it's like pretty sandy, like volcanic sand. And also after that patch, we sort of lost Nikos. I can't see him behind anymore. I think I can get up there, no problem. But I mean, at the moment, Nikos is not coming. Okay, so Nikos has reappeared. So we're going to try and go up here. See how we get on. Yup. Woo, that's good. Okay, half a mile to the camp. Good evening guys. We made it, happy and alive. Yes, after quite a struggle up this road, unexpected struggle up this road, we have made it to this little spot right here in between the trees and look at the view that we've got in front of us. Yes, we are going to be camping in view of an active volcano. It's unbelievable. Pretty amazing. I still can't believe it. I'm so happy at the end that we actually did the detour and that we actually went to Chile and avoided all the way up through Argentina. Yeah, I did not expect this crazy volcano landscapes to come up, so I was really unexpected, but absolutely awesome. Yeah, wow, it was a really hectic day, a really stressful day. A lot of things went wrong, but at the end of the day, we are here now, which is absolutely amazing and we have just to build up the camp and start some cooking, but yeah, we will have a good night here. And wake up tomorrow with an amazing view and then we'll head to the mechanic. So that's it from us today. We did it at the end, 140 miles and we hope you enjoyed the video. If so, please give us a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, share the video with your friends and family, comment below. And also, we have the membership program going, so if you really like our videos then you can join and click the bottom below. And we will see you next time. These guys who just parked up next to us to camp here for the night, they were flying a drone around, so I went and asked them, can you send us some footage of the drone because both our drones are broken. And then he said, oh, you can just fly it around if you want, get whatever shots you like. So we did. We're just glassiers.
