Adventures in chronology presents…

The 2007 Baja 500 pre run posted post the Baja 500 post run.


The backwards reporting ain’t gonna end here … will be posting another report with photos pre-pre run photos. But that’s later … back to the present, um… past.

Prepping for Baja requires spending some time in the garage. Dustjunkie's lair:







This particular trip saw quite the spectrum of KTMs … I took the minibike (450 XC-W :thumb (!), Flyingo on the 625 race machine, & Dustjunkie trying out the 950 beast (pretty sure there will be a new addition to the stable over there soon :D).






We spent something like six hours in Ensenada riding around Canyon Dona Petra & getting stuck in new housing developments back there. DJ was running the GPS, so he probably has a better idea of what was going on … regardless, it was taco time when we finally rolled into Ojos…






Rolling on from there it was straight down Uruapan …







and over to the coast…







[Note the rider in this photo … upper left quadrant-ish…]







No place I’d rather be.



















From there we hit the coastal dunes…

Flyingo getting the 950 unstuck:

























This whole area is a pretty unique place to ride – not too many … scratch that, not any places in CA like this I can think of…







We made “camp” of sorts renting a house in Erendira.

This is “Bolo”. He pees brake fluid.
I’ll let the others chime in on that…






Next day more coastal playing with the crew:

And yours truly:

…and riding it out:




my go, different line:




Dustjunkie, yet another line:





Up the coast we were headed back up Uruapan, first the shortcut:





…then another shortcut:





Flyingo taking it all in…





Then it was up & over Uruapan … literally.

Flyingo:




and the minibike:





And … the painting …
