Baja – 4/28 thru 5/8

[Dave G]

Wayne and I are headed to Baja.  Street ride.  Maybe as far as Mulege.  Probably do a little off bike camping on the way down and back.

Friday April 28 through Monday May 8.  Leaving Reno early on Friday morning.

 

I’ll be on my FJR so I won’t be doing any off road stuff.  You can though if you like.  We’re planning on a lot of miles each day getting down there.

You’ll need Mexican insurance.

This sounds like good company and a lot of fun. I’m planning to start shopping for an adventure bike in the Spring, so maybe I will have one in time for this ride.

Update: So I bought a new KLR on April 3rd, but my DMV registration appointment isn’t until May 25th. Oh well, the bike will be all broken in and ready for Mexico next year.

Rides: KLR650, KX250

A late entry…thanks Dave and Wayne for letting me join the ride at this late date. As we’ve discussed, I’ll turn back after San Felipe and be back in Reno on May 1. I will likely take 3 back up through Ensenada and cross at Tecate to add a change in scenery. I’ll be riding the 1290 SAR and packed for hotel and light camping.

I’ve heard from Randy and Dave from the Baja ride. Randy rode down with Dave, Wayne and Garret through Barstow (Friday night) and on to San Felipe (Saturday night). Randy then had to return to Reno, and got back on Monday the 1st. He averaged 375 miles per day over 4 days of riding. The others continued on down Highway 1 to Mulege, at the mouth of the Bahia Concepcion. They will be in the small town of Catavina in central Baja off Highway 1 on Wednesday night.

Hopefully we’ll get a great ride report when they get back.
