Lets go to Baja!

[Greg@RME]

Thanks for the report. I'm headed down crossing the border at Tecate on 2/16 for probably 8 nights and it's good to have some recent info. Check out Laguna Diablo next time, it's pretty special.

You heading back on the bike? The XR650R is the perfect Baja bike!

Out to the coast? I'll have to check it out!

Yes sir!

Great write up! We were down there too over New Year's (with the little ROF trip) and saw lots of the same sites. We even stopped in at the same restaurant with the one-eyed Great Dane in Bahia de Los Angeles. Were you there when the electricity went out for the entire town?
Thanks for jogging my memory.

Thanks! I heard about the electricity going down, but it didn't effect us.

Going in my Taco this trip with my son and the lady. It's got a Vagabond Drifter, 35s, supercharged, gears, lockers, etc. A buddy with his similarly built FJ is joining me. Palapas in San Francisquito, or maybe Panchos in San Rafael, are as far south as we are going. We will stay on the eastern side this trip.

My dad took me to LA Bay when I was a kid in '93. The road from the MX-1 was dirt the entire way back then and the town had limited generator electricity. I hadn't been back until Dec '17 and it was pretty shocking to see how built up it was.

Were the Pemex up and running in LA Bay when you were there? I only get ~200 miles to a tank and can only carry ~90 miles of additional fuel so I pay pretty close attention to those things when down there.

We LOVE San Francisquito!!

Yeah, we filled up in the Bay of LA without issue before heading back.

Sad to say but there is no more Pancho dep/rip.
