Great ride in South East County Thanks to all that showed up, unfortunately we peaked out a little early on Otay & Tecate. Really had to use our imaginations up there staring blindly into the clouds, the sun came out eventually made for a nice well rounded day. Great group, good pace Not many pics on my end Finished with a cold beverage and burger at Brodies in Jamul Looking forward to more exploration Thanks again

Crawdaddy and myself pondered a quick trip down south to grab a cold beer at MSR Panned out very quick and the next thing we were crossing the Tecate border early Sat morning We were a party of "tres amigos" little warm and only getting warmer - but we were covering ground and well on our way Until he came over the radio and alerted of "amigo down" First time Baja rider "Fressness" as we call him, took a little more then a nap - looked like a deep sleep when I rolled up, no bueno..... Assuming a broken collar bone at the time, better then some of the alternatives... we hobbled over to some trees for some shade and decision making. After mutually deciding to make a run north to the border, we headed to Santa Veronicas to regroup have a few tacos and a cold beer... Freshness regained his "freshness" but was in no condition to Baja on. C-Daddy took the task of getting him to the truck at Tecate, he is currently in the speedy recovery mode - only in Baja for an hour and already has his Baja story With nothing but daylight and the desire to ride south - I asked if they were cool if I split and soloed it to MSR. lots of fire damage down south, with heavy rains made for pretty interesting terrain some of the forrest is burned right to the ground - allowed me to wander a bit into the abyss, totally different experience. lots of new black fire sand washes & monsoonal erosion, no pics unfortunately Had the ranch to myself, picked up a Baja hitchhiker along the way - pinched the first replaced tube - that was a lot fun, glad I had 2 - 18"" Here's a few pics from the ride Freshness in the first pic - when times were good - scenic view point at top of compadre
