Well as it turns out, the bike I have been allocated is registered in a name that is not Compass, therefore I cannot be riding bike they have no legal ownership of. The embassy official told me in plain english, "this is a problem, Sir". The passport photos requirements never got fixed either.
So now I have to wait and see if Compass can sort this mess out before I arrive in Bolivia on around Saturday, Fridays is a public holiday as well. It is easter this weekend,
This took most of the morning so after this, Howard (an english guy also here) and I went to the big tall shopping centre for a coffee. Building is tallest in Latin America at 62 floors. I think Rialto may be higher.
After views, it was a few beers in late afternoon and now rest time before dinner.
