Brazil is a beautiful place to bike. It would be great if it was a bit safer tho.

Brazil is almost an undiscovered country for the international bicycle-travel community. Long-haul South American routes go down the west side of the continent. Historically this was blamed on Brazil's roads being regarded as unusually narrow and dangerous. However, in the bikepacking era when lots of people want to ride rough tracks, not roads with many vehicles, it's odd that no such rough routes across Brazil have become popular among cyclists coming to the region from elsewhere.
