Thank you to everyone who already submitted guesses for our total mileage contest. If you have not yet entered the contest and would like to, you have two more weeks to guess how many miles we will drive this year.
Fill out the form below to submit your guess. The winner will be the closest guess to the actual odometer reading in Ushuaia, Argentina. The contest will be open until April 30th and the winner will get a bottle of wine directly from Argentina (plus bragging rights)!
Relevant information: Our route is not at all set. The general idea is to head south, starting in Baja, then cross over to mainland Mexico, through Central America, and on to South America along the general course of the Pan American Highway. There will be plenty of diversions along the way. We might make it all the way south to Ushuaia, Argentina, but then again we might not. We plan to be on the road for approximately one year.
Full disclosure: The oversized tires on the van cause the odometer to be low by approximately 5% (for every 100 actual miles we drive the odometer will read ~95). The winner will be the person that guesses the closest to our total mileage on the odometer.
Odometer reading when we left Boulder: 207,839
We are currently in La Baz, Baja California Sur, and our odometer now reads 211,023.
The mileage contest is now closed, thanks to everyone who entered!
Looks fun, we have a place in Bahia De Los Angeles, Baja. We will be free of working in 3 years, can’t wait to start traveling and living on the road for extended periods of time.
