For those interested here's what we have for an itinerary. If you're interested send me a message. July 2nd - Saturday - 8am (ish). Leave San Diego and head to Tecate to cross the border. From there we'll head to ensenada and spend the night and enjoy the town. July 3rd - Sunday - We'll head to to Mike's Sky Ranch (I have a reservation for 3 but doesn't sound like they will be too busy) We booked two nights to give us options. July 4th - This day is open. We can do day rides from Mikes, or head to San Felipe, or possibly El Rosario. July 5th - Tuesday we'll head home. Good chance we'll do Highway 1 up the coast to Tijuana unless we end up in San Felipe. There's a good chance we'll hit La Bufadora Either on the 3rd or on the 5th. Route Options We can figure 2 hours to get back into the U.S. is what I'm reading. SD to Tecate to Ensenada to Mikes (2 days) to SD (My Vote) https://goo.gl/8v9Usk This leave south on new road and catches a lot of extra highway on highway 1. (6 hrs road time on the way home.)

Great info. Any other suggestions on places to eat or stay along the way? We're planning on finding accommodations so we don't have bring so much gear from out of state.

Hello All, I'm currently in Idaho but will be meeting two other friends (All in our 30's) in San Diego on July 1st and trying to plan a 4 day ride starting the following morning. We love if another rider or two joined us that have made a similar ride and can perhaps assist in route planning, border crossing, etc. Though other riders are welcome too. We'll be riding two KLR 650's and I have 2005 BMW F650GS. We all are experienced riders though none of us have spent much time riding a fully packed adventure bike offroad. Most of our experience comes on cruisers, sport bikes, and dirt bikes. With that said we look forward to some off-road riding but would like to keep the trails somewhere in the easy to moderate range. We prefer to skip single tracks and anything too technical. We've discussed going down coast and coming back up the other but its looks like most of the cool terrain is between the coasts? We are looking for suggestions on: Routes and the appropriate gear for those routes. Issues riding in Mexico and/or crossing the border (We know we need Mexican insurance and proof of ownership) Useful publications or Websites Gas Stops Points of Interest Accommodations Nightlife (We don't get too crazy but we're all single and enjoy a beer) Any of useful information. Saturday July 2nd to Tuesday July 5th leaving from San Diego.
