Hello all.

Its been a long time. Recently got back from a 1,600 mile trip from Tijuana to Cabo San Lucas BAJA Mexico. Was an amazing trip with 4 awesome dudes. I rode my "new" 2007 KTM SUPER ENDURO. I must say, 105hp dirt bikes are a ton of fun. More later

I hope everyone is AWESOME.

In our group of 5 we had a 450 KTM, my old Baja race bike the FE 550, a CRF450 X, a Suzuki DR 650, and of course me on the monster KTM 950 SUPER Enduro. All of us were riding with soft luggage panniers. In 1600 miles we only had 2 flats in the whole group, both on the Honda. We had very minimal bike trouble and nobody got hurt.

We crossed the border into Tijuana Friday evening and had to deal with darkness and crazy rush hour traffic. After changing money and getting visas we had to ride pavement for about 50 miles. 1 guy ran out of gas a mile before the top of the pass but it was no big deal. It was in the mid forties when we arrived at our first stop, an old ranch Where they use to train the Mexican bull fighters.

The first couple of days were very cold as we were a little higher in elevation Up in the pine forest and it was sleeting and even a little hail. The further south we got we cleared the storm and it started to warm up.

We ended up riding the infamous Bill Nichols trail called Window Rock which is a very very nice single track. The Super enduro handled the rough singletrack quite well and the guy that did my suspension is a wizard, Alex Konflict Motorsports.

A little bit south of Loretto which is about 3 quarters of the way down the peninsula we ended up on the hardest trail I have ever done on a motorcycle. They had a very large hurricane about 3 weeks before and it did an incredible amount of damage. It had not rained in Loreto in over 2 years and they proceeded to get over 30 inches from the storm. We attempted to ride to Aqua Verde from the south which was a very very very bad idea. 1 guy in our group should of turned around but kept going down this so called road which had been utterly destroyed. It was 1 of those things where once you started going down you had to keep going down because going back up was not really an option, it was that gnarly. It took our group over 2 hours to go 2 miles and we dropped over 2000 vertical feet.
