Thank you.... I will. And yes it is too bad to involve the government. I had an idealist mind set of it being a grassroots effort, but maybe it is a bigger problem then I'm imagining. Anyway I love riding down there and I personally dont mind paying to keep it alive. Cheers, Chris

Yeah... bummer but also understandable... Imagine owning 1000 acres and not having a neighbor for miles around and then people just rip right by your house on a motorcycle. The main reason I wanted to do this ride sooner than later was because of this starting to happen more and more down there.... Maybe there needs to be a Baja motorcycle group (like AMA) that could raise money and offer it to these guys to keep the gates open??

SUPER FUN, bucket list type of ride. Smaller bikes, mostly dirt. until day 5, I was so worn out I did a day of slab, then back on easy dirt roads for day 6 and finished strong day 7 with some amazing dirt over mountains and along Sea of Cortez. Shipped bikes back to Tijuana and flew home..... And even caught Carnival in La Paz for a rest day, while giving the bikes time to reach the boarder. I love Mexico and felt safer and more welcome than can be imagined. The people are amazing and always helpful. From finding fuel from neighbors, throwing broken bikes in trucks etc. We hit some rain on day 3 day it was like a slippery snot day... turned into a 14hr day. Most days were 9-10hrs. (180 a day average) I'm going again ASAP.... maybe just a 4-5 day down and back trip. Or drive my truck down with Moto and camp and ride and drive back....

Please take it ALL or none.... trying to free up space for more Motos!!! Mostly KTM 350 (2018) parts but some are universal and some may fit on other KTM's, not sure. I'm swamped moving so please come to Coronado to pick up. Cheers, Chris Tooggood 619-865-3334

Great. Thank you. I will do that Sunday or Monday. Going to ride McCain Valley tomorrow on my KTM350 if anybody's out there...

Hi ya, I signed up and paid for this ride (I THINK I DID) I'm only 55 and my brain is already farting.... not good. I just want to make sure I did sign up. I looked for a confirmation email and cant see it. Is there away to make sure I'm all set as far as registering and paying? Cheers, Chris

Thank you Dirt Dame. So are the 20 spots first come first serve or can we sign up for them? Looks like a nice place. I've ridden by there many times but have never stopped. Cheers

Haha. Got it and Thank you everyone's for your input. I'll dust off the KLR 650 and ride it proudly. I'm thinking I'll strap on all my camping gear too and make it an adventure ride. In fact how do you sign up for tent camping at Pico Pio? SP? Or do we just show up? Cheers, Chris

Great. Thank you!! I look forward to it. Cheers, Chris

Would you consider this a big Bike ride or more for a smaller plated bike like a 350 or 500?? Thanks for putting this event on!! Cheers, Chris

Sorry Roberto.... Just now saw this. I would like to go next time. Going to Ocotillo this Thursday for 4 days so wont make it this Thursday. Cheers, Chris

Coral Canyon too.... Or is that plated bikes only now??

Looks perfect!!! I would have loved to have gone with you. And thank you for keeping this site going and planning the Mountain Dash. When is that ride btw? Cheers

Thank you for the heads up!!! I was planning on the 21st but ... yea, I think I'll hold off. Cheers

That is too bad... I was just looking for info to make sure and sign up. I hope the unforeseen circumstances have been or are overcome with a good outcome. Sending positive thoughts and I'll look forward to a 2023 Desert Dash!!! Cheers, Chris
