If you want to see how I traveled around South America to do the 9 climbs, check this out where stars and red lines mark the cycling climbs, driving is on roads, and flights are straight lines:

I loved seeing these scenes. This looks so much harder (and scarier) than my paved road climbs. And how cool to ride through waterfalls!

Bike seems ok but I’m taking it in for a checkup today before I take off for more climbs. As far as how I configured things, I’m very happy with it. It’s exactly what I’ll need for the really steep stuff that is upcoming, and it’s very versatile with different road surfaces.
