The way our itinerary gets set is by suggestions and ideas, often communicated over a beer or via IM. Both Jim and I would like to see Machu Picchu. Jim's wife, Patty, and her sister are considering coordinating a trip to visit it with us.
Once a seed like that is planted it leads to research. Starting from the vague idea, "I'd like to see Machu Picchu." leads to google fun. It turns out that for a quick visit to MP we need to take a train to the small town of Hot Water (Aguas Calientes) and catch a bus up the mountain. Basically it is a minimum 3 day commitment to see Machu Picchu. I've got to admit I'd love to see Machu Picchu, but I'm not really phsyched about being away from the bikes for 3 days.
Like any plan, things are subject to change. Who knows, maybe we'll see them in Cusco but not go to Machu Picchu with them.
