I'm not sure I can give you certainty by Wednesday, but no worries: might I go, I can get myself a hotel room in San Felipe.

There's a nice and easy dirt road going from La Rumorosa to Laguna Hanson, and on to Hwy 3. Then a few miles of pavement, and some more dirt from Hwy to San Felipe. Would that be a consideration?

Any idea of the route you're taking from Mexicali to San Felipe?

So, just to confirm: 2/16-19 with crossing in Mexicali?

Are you crossing the border in Tecate? If so, what time?

Also interested

I might be able to join. Any idea on the route yet?

@paulmbowers, Thanks for the valuable info. Your links to speakers and harness are the same, and they both point to the harness. Would you be so kind as to give us the link to your favorite speakers and mic? Thanks!

Thanks for the excellent ride, guys! And for putting up with this noob.

I will meet at the car wash / gas station.

I'd love to go, if you'll take a total noob.

I've been through two USB adaptors in less than a month, and would like a recommendation for a robust USB adaptor. Any suggestions.

Thanks guys, very good recommendations on the Spot. I thought I'd read that the Lithium batteries only lasted 4 days, but 3 weeks changes the equation totally. I'll keep it on myself then. And I'll look into your USB recommendation for the phone.

Thanks, I actually have that one, but there are 2 problems with it: it's a single USB - I need one for the phone and one for Spot, and it's awkward to mount on the bar.

No BP harassing, on the contrary, if you stop and talk to them, they'll appreciate it. It must be very boring just sitting there in a car looking at the desert. I haven't tried Campo to Tecate yet, just Campo to Jacumba (eastwards). And thoroughly enjoyed the climbs and descents, although the sphincter was working overtime to keep things under control.

I'm a noobie myself and did an interesting short ride last weekend, a border run from Campo to Jacumba. The most challenging part was a steep climb and descent with deep grooves, and the border wall shade. --Carlos Border Run Campo-Jacumba.GPX

Whereas, as my track shows, there's a direct road.

I was in Baja for the first time last weekend. As it turns out, the City Navigator NT turned out to be completely useless: as soon as you go into dirt roads, the Montana pleads the 5th. Even roads like the one from Hanson Lake to La Rumorosa, which a perfectly fine road, not requiring particularly developed skills, isn't there. Google maps know it! Am I doing something wrong, or should I just buy another map? And, if so, which?

Yep, got them both in the highest possible detail. If I try to create a route from Lake Juarez to La Rumorosa, it'll send me through a 247 mile trip.

CN NT is the only map I've got active. The screenshot I sent in the previous mail is from BaseCamp. So, either CN NT does not know the road from Laguna Juarez to Rumorosa (and many others that I've ridden last weekend), or I'm doing something really stupid.

I'm using the City Navigator North America NT 2018.3 version. City Navigator. See attached.

Can someone give any idea on what to buy in order to install a pair of Baja Designs Squadron Pro LED Lights on my Husky 701? And where to install them? Tia, --Carlos

Thanks for all the good advice, guys. --Carlos
