Edélcio Biscola tells how happened his travel by motorcycle through the "four borders" Uruguay, Argentine, Chile and Paraguay, that covered 7.800 kilometers between April 13 and 27, 2008.

During the 7800 kilometers ran in the fifteen days of the motorcycle travel, the paulistano Edélcio Biscola, more known as Che, visited the capital of Uruguay, Argentina, Chile e Paraguay. The adventure was realized in group, with his friends Sena e Carvalho, both members of the motorcycle club BR116. The motorcycle travelers also knew Cerro Aconcágua, that's the largest mountain of the South Hemisphere, The mountain range of Andes and the Ocean Pacific. They could know different places and cultures of other people in the South America. The Idea to realize this motorcycle travel came up through the contact with his friends of the motorcycle club BR116. He tells that, together, idealized a trip where would pass by four countries and through other touristic points, inside a short period of time. Che tells that the travel was being planned with around a year of advance time, and were decided with the help of some friends that have indicated some scripts, and also, through some motorcycle adventures published on INEMA website. Some members of the group already knew the place that would be visited, and were ready to, one more time, pilot in that completely attractive scene. According to Che, was necessary so much preparing before the adventure happen, and he defines in this order: financial resource, motorcycle, and spirit. The group left São Paulo, SP, on April 13th, towards to South of Brazil. During the international travel, many things had mesmerized him, as the 07 Route (ARG), The Aconcágua, Caracoles, the Ocean Pacific, and the charm of each country's capital where he passed. Entre os diversos momentos emocionantes que o motociclista viveu, ele relembra a chegada ao Chile. "Foi muito emocionante"- acrescenta. E revela que a Cordilheira dos Andes foi o que mais chamou sua atenção, sendo algo fantástico e místico. According to Che, the unique difficult that they really faced during the adventure happened during the course of the Mountain Range of Andes. So much him as his motorcycle, suffered with the lack of air, because of the altitude. He explains that, as his motorcycle is still carbureted, it be injured by the altitude. He also suffers with that, therefore, the rarefied air causes the sensation of tiredness. Despite of that, in all the rest period, the motorcyclist guarantees that its motorbike performed well the necessary tasks. Diariamente, os motociclistas percorriam cerca de 700 quilômetros, o que equivale de oito a dez horas por dia. Durante todo esse tempo, precisaram se hidratar muito, o grupo se abastecia com muita água. In addition to the beautiful views, the group of adventurers also lived funny and unusual moments, as this, that Che tells us: "In Coronel Oviedo city - Paraguay, as stopping to put gas in the motors , a guy left behind a column, with a 12 calibrate in my hand. Immediately, we got afraid, imagining that the post would be assaulted. So, the guy looked at us with a face of terrorist, and said: 'Quieres nafta?' - asking if we want put gas in the motorcycles. In fact, the man was the gas station forecourt, who with a hand held the gas hose with a hand, and with the other, a gun". The script of the adventure was already decided. Even though, it suffered some changing at the last moments. "We made and adaptation to know some new courses, that waste to be visited". With this travel, Che and his friends had as the main goal, to know the capitals of these four countries: Argentine, Uruguay, Chile and Paraguay. He affirms that the goal was achieved and he already has plans to do a motorcycle travel as this one, and with more people. Between his learning that he got with these experiences, Che detaches the living with his friends, mainly because and adventure as this, is very important to know how to work together. For him, the motorcycle travel presented a dream that became reality. A dream that he was planning to make reality has two years. He makes a conclusion about all the things that he could appreciate during those fifteen days that he was on the road. "The diversity of cultures, very different of our, and places that would be never forgotten". This wasn't the first travel by motorcycle realized by Che, but, surely, was one of the unforgettable. He make sure that in no other moment, let any difficulty make he give up of a dream, and all the efforts were awarded.
