Ok i'll be riding bitch with @DesertGoat on this trip. I gotta go to Baja once a year and without my Baja adventure truck being done i'll be riding shotgun and navigating the GPS, talking shit on race radio and taking some epic photos that Baja offers.

This will max out the house because it only sleeps 10, unless others want to grab the floor or camp out. We can adjust when some people back out.

I'll tent camp if there is 'secure' parking out front of the house. Would just like a shitter in the morning!

 

[85Yota]

I have camping pads and will bring my sleeping bags to sleep on the floor if necessary as well.

 

[DesertGoat]

i can leave the RTT on my truck and sleep in that if space becomes a premium
+1 to wanting the shower + shitter convenience though.

Friday stay at Villa Marina, Saturday however the racecourse goes (map comes out a little before the race) skip some crappy parts and have lunch in Vally T and make our way to SF, Sunday will be a free day to do whatever the group votes on doing, Monday run more of the course back to Ensenada and to home.

 

[charlie brown]

room booked for friday night $135 and one for monday night $95

Sounds rad.

Just out of curiosity. How much of the course do you plan to run on Monday? If I'm able to go I may just head north from San Felipe to the Mexicali border.

Both dirt days I’m definitely gonna run easier, funner stuff of the course and branches into some better stuff and stay out of the nasty, Bull Shit.

 

[charlie brown]

norra going through san felipe. 102*.

 

[Giant Geoff]

I’m pumped and working towards going: new radiator, added a 2nd rear shocks, rebuilt the c/o’s and made a step to climb into the rear,
