From Quellon to Castro in Chile

My motorcycle trip this time was from Quellon on Chiloé Island in Chile to Castro.

It was about a 90km journey.

I’m leaving Quellon

About five minutes after I set off, the clutch pedal came loose.

I’m still unable to shift out of third gear, but since there are no traffic lights ahead, this shouldn’t be a big deal.

Because of this, the maximum speed is about 60 km/h, so I’ll continue driving safely while enjoying the scenery.

I thought it would be flat all the way, but there were unexpected ups and downs here, and even riding in third gear was a fun time for me.

There’s construction work 62km from where I left, and traffic is heavy.

If I leave it like this, the engine will stall when I start moving, so I’ll adjust the clutch pedal here.

I waited here for about 15 minutes, as shown in the video.

I had to wait several times after that due to construction.

I arrived in the Castro about an hour and a half after departure, so it took about two hours.

From there, it’s about 10 minutes and I arrive at Armas Square.

My trip this time would have been much more enjoyable for me if it weren’t for the clutch pedal issue and the construction work.

This time, the distance was shorter, so I had plenty of time.

I finally received the sprocket in Castro and will now be able to replace the chain.

I hope the clutch pedal arrives here, but I haven’t received any shipping notification yet.

Will it arrive?
