America... I wondered how you would get through the Darién Gap! Here's a fascinating tidbit from your link about the gap: "The first all-land auto crossing was in 1985–1987 by Loren Upton and Patty Mercier in a CJ-5 Jeep, taking 741 days to travel 125 miles (201 km), all on land. This crossing is documented in the 1992 Guinness Book of Records. In addition Upton returned in 1995 and became the first to drive a motorcycle, a two-wheel drive Rokon motorcycle, all on land through the Darién Gap, in 49 days." 741 DAYS TO DRIVE 125 MILES IN A JEEP?? Jeepers... See you in Ireland at the end... Jamoof, Heather, Walker in Wilbraham, Massachusetts, USA Warm greetings Tony,
