I did get some new Klim pants, but they are a little baggy and don't highlight my best curves. Not sure what to do as I'd like to get this dialed in before I go on the trip or make public appearances in the area.

If you go to copper canyon and have the interest, check this town out.

Quite a few years ago, I brought some of the pottery back. I think duty was low for art. I think now some are worth some money, used to be they were cheaper in MX and you could resell for good price. Not sure about now.
That's some nice stuff. My parents have a collection that's similar from Pima Indians.
I just wish it was easier to get to Mexico - those in the SW are quite fortunate. I love it down there.

He has a company that I've worked with and is business partners with Jeff Benrud - another Baja racer (Honda 450) that I've worked with. Good guys. Jeff did well at Baja this past year, but RJs truck broke 200 miles in.
RJ has suggested a nav app (LeadNav) and hiring some guys he uses to follow us down through Baja. We shall see.
Some friends of mine were in Baja last week. They both got really sick and were told to leave. Red Tide.
That's just weak genes. Some people should stick to resorts and dumps like Orlando.
Doubt that is the case. He and his wife quit their jobs about a year ago and put together one of those gay vans you see on Expo. They left VA sometime after Thanksgiving and have no plans to be anywhere at any given time. Fucking hippies.

Those aren't as bad as the EarthRoamers and similar platforms in terms of capability and being a bit more low profile. Less likely to attract attention and the EarthRoamers aren't really all the capable when it comes down to it. The granite counter tops and other bloated items make them far too heavy based on the vehicle footprint. Just get a Volvo 240 wagon, some camping gear and surf boards.
The Baja 250 is going on in San Felipe at the end of the month when I'm there, so I'll make sure I stay away from that place if we stop for the night. But honestly hope we spend more time in San Ignacio and Bahia de Los Angeles though.
Check out this Baja 1000 video of Jeff that he just sent me - Rick's business partner. Watch in HD.

He's headed back again next year with big sponsorship. I missed this year, but not going to miss next year.
Hell no. I'd last about 10 miles and stroke out. I'd need fresh tacos every few hours. I had planned on going down with a friend and following along the route this past event, but a wedding I was in coincided. Assuming no more weddings, I at least am headed down, but will be borrowing some toys from Rick to ride/drive down from his place in SoCal. I wanted to ship my bike out and ride it at least one down there. They get picked up tomorrow assuming the snow doesn't mess things up.
