Having involuntarily taken a whole riding season off we ended up focused on expanding our business infrastructure. Things we had planned to do in the future suddenly became a focus for what could be done right now. We invested heavily in equipment, in the form of new bikes, new pannier systems and a whole new office. But also, in tools and equipment to help improve our maintenance facilities and make things run smoother between rides. Now we are going into winter and focusing on pulling off a grand re-opening of all thing’s tourism, lord willing for 2021/22. For us personally we have missed riding with people from all over the world and helping new riders accomplish their dreams of riding in Patagonia. I will be all to happy to get back in the fast lane of riding and setting up bikes for these long rides down here.
For those waiting to see what happens I would recommend taking advantage of the low-cost air fairs we are now seeing. Book your motorcycle rental or tour now for next season. Start planning because next summer will be here before you know it and you don’t want to miss out on a grand re-opening of Patagonia. Do not wait because bike and tour availability will only get more difficult as we draw closer to next summer. What we are seeing in the tourism industry is companies having to combine the reservations they moved from this past summer AND the new reservations for next summer all into one time frame. Things will get busy, and you may miss your opportunity to get out and ride!
My recommendation is to book early and be sure you get ahead of the curve. And in our case because we didn’t stop the new ideas and the improvements during the C19 downtime you will get an even better experience because of all the hard work and improvements being made. This may very well be the case for much of the tourism industry. Take advantage and get out there to explore!
