Constellation News - Featuring Brazilian Star Riders

 

This day was a shiny and hot Sunday and we ride nearly 800 km in one day. To us, a good ride needs to be more to 500 Km, otherwise it’s only visit to a next door neighbor. This day marked the first official appearance of the Brazilian Star Riders and the beginning of something good.  Perhaps this is why this is my favorite ride. Well, we started our headquarters in Goiania, the capital of the State of Goias, and the ride was full of good surprises. First, we took some pictures with our ISRA flag and with our Drag Star. 

 

Later the ride was to some nature attractions and the day ended with a beautiful sunset.

 

 

The photos in mountains are located in South Brazil. Nice place to ride!!
