Desert Moto

 Well, I have spent some quality days riding in the desert with some old and some new friends. JeffE and Mark hooked up a guided trip and moto rental starting out of Los Barriles, BCS so I thought what a great way to spend a week in the desert!

Safe camping with a pool and hot showers

Rolling out, hoping for rain to keep the dust down. No luck. It blew over...


The Adventure Coop :: https://www.youtube.com/@theadventurecooperative/videos :: is a group of like minded riders who come from Canada each winter to capture some sunshine and explore the Baja.

Chris and Steph were awesome hosts! Get in touch if you are interested in a desert ride.

Each day we rode different directions. North along the beach, south along the ridge lines overlooking the Sea of Cortez, and west into the mountains. Such a variety of riding. Ripping the sandy arroyo at 80kph was certainly a wakeup call. Don't get off the gas or you'll bury the front wheel and eat sand.

Breakfast in San Bartolo

We rode 5 days through desert arroyos, stopped to swim at an oasis and explored bat caves.

Don't hit the cows!

Lunch in Santiago

Cave break

Are you brave enough to explore the bat cave?

Jack!


This baby goat was only ONE DAY old!


Time to move south and have some Cabo time. Roger wants to mountain bike so I'll explore some trails. Also, I'd like to ride the East Cape - the undeveloped (for now) area at the tip of the Baja peninsula.
