The adventure begins!

Officially starts the Transamazônica 2009.

After the meeting of all participants in Nova Mutum-MT and completion of all preparations, officially starts the Transamazônica 2009 - expedition that promises transpose the country's worst roads, a journey over 3000 km

The expedition begins with the participants driving to Guarantã do Norte / MT.

The day´s route was covered on the road asphalt and without major problems. Only some little electrical problems in some participants cars.

The total distance covered in this day was 400 km aprox.

In Guarantã participants met with the City Jeep Club.

The second day began the non-paved path through the BR 163.

After the leader of group, Sérgio Holanda give an interview to local TV, participants followed to Novo Progresso. That was the objective in this day. Meanwhile, the poor state of the highway delayed the displacement.

In the first day on dirt road with the falling rain, they had the first "Off-Road" moment.

After a few kilometers, a 6x6 truck ¨Jacaré" (delivery truck that supplies the region) was stuck in a mud hole, and trying to go out with a strong hydraulic winch with no success.

On the way a break to take pictures of the wonderful waterfall Curuá, which are being constructed in their rapids three hydro electrics.

After many kilometers in the dirt road, with many holes the jeeps are required to stop in the village of Castelo dos Sonhos, due to repairs on the rack of Xterra. It was giving problems since the beginning of the journey. The cause was the excess weight.

Pause for dinner, a delicious fish of the region and fraternization between members of the group

The third day continues through the BR-163. This time, the route wich they traveled was longer. Due to lack of road conditions, was necessary travel at night.

The participants started from the Castelo dos Sonhos at 7:40 pm.

The group follows more slowly and with some downtime due to problems in some cars in the group. (Xterra and Eladio’s Toyota)

After a long journey participants are stopped by a big truck mired on the middle of the highway. It blocks the road. This slows the movement of group, but yields pictures of the suffering of the population that depends of that Federal Road.

After much effort of other trucks and the local people the road was released.

The objective of this day was come very close to the city Itaituba, but sometimes the road allowed the cars to walk 80km, sometimes to less than 20 km.

To worsen (or improve) starts raining and the road is quite slippery.

It is night and everything is more dangerous. In a decline, the Hilux of Sérgio slides and stops next to a ditch. In another time, Eládio slides 180 degrees and beating gently in the ravine.

In another time, the group found two residents of the region. Theirs car is broken and they are there for many hours. The group helps them towed to the nearest village.

The whole path was covered in rain, strong or weak, but constant, and very slippery mud. The driving skill of the participants was placed in evidence in this route..

The end of the ride was in the village called Caracol 23:00 pm, where participants stayed.

Jericho is a "homemade vehicle" built with parts of all types of cars, trucks or light trucks, with engines of all types (including stationary diesel motors). In most cases, is not much more than is necessary for transport (chassis, engine, wheels and body) and are characterized by lack of stop-mud, bumpers, windscreen, cockpit, safety belt and sometimes, not even seat. Those vehicles are very common in this region of the Amazonas state.
