roadchick 0 Posted January 25, 2012 How difficult is this ride? What level of rider does this ride require? How many miles between gas stops? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtdiver 2 Posted January 27, 2012 How difficult is this ride? What level of rider does this ride require? How many miles between gas stops? Roadchic, Not to jump in on Firematt;s trip but I'm sure that you would find this trek easy. The pavement in Baja is similar to the states, on a country 2 lane road with no shoulder. There is maybe one chunk where you need to be able to make 150 miles between gas stations. If they do get in the dirt your small bike will shine. I bet this would be a memorable trip. My only 2 cents is to carry plenty of water if you get off the pavement. For instnace take a short cut or 50 miles out to the coast. That time of year can be REALLY hot if you have a flat tire or get stuck by mechanical issues. Mulege and south is just pure amazing. I am going on a 3 day rip through northern baja in the morning. Can't wait. :-) DD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me know what you think. I am planning on doing this on the f800gs What is everyone else riding? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firematt 0 Posted February 1, 2012 Roadchick, I feel that the bigest challange of this trip for most is just getting the time away from work and our every day resposibilities. BUT, with the exceptions of turtles, potholes, oncoming traffic, unmarked hair pin turns, fuel issues, mild dehydration, mechanical problems, flat tires, live stock and throw in all the uncertainties of Baja...It's guna be a relatively easy trip. I know many people who have made the "Trip to the Tip" doing it the hardest way posable..... I personally perfer just doing it safe and as enjoyable as posable?
