We were rollin' really well and having fun. I was picking up the rear but I noticed Gary's left bag was moving around a bit much. On my last trip down one of my buddies had a stock GS1200 with the stock side cases and he had one of his mounts break. Plastic not the best for cases off road. Even light off roading.
I was on a mission to catch him before the case broke off. Going over everything and bottoming out the suspension I was at my limit and slowly bringing him back. My horn had died because of the water crossing so no honking could be done. I was able to come up alongside him and as we crested a little roller Gary noticed I was there and pinned it. As we both landed the case ripped off and skipped down the road in front of me. I did all I could not to hit it as Gary railed off. I turned around to pick up the case. As I did that I pulled the bike over in a brain fart move!
Gary came back helped me pick the beast up and noticed that his case was by his feet. "Hey that's mine!"
Back on the main road we saw some nice little birdies
Unfortunately once we got just outside Valle de Trinidad Soto's tube let go, again! At least this time we had a nice little place to do the repair.
We did like this gravity fed fuel pump system
The locals love to go out wheelin too
Love the baja dogs down there
Here are some shots after fixing the last flat of the trip on our way to Ensenada
Here is Gary and Soto rollin into Ensenada
We then headed to Dona Lupe's for a bite before heading home. This place is wonderful. I highly recommend checking it out
One last stop before getting to the boarder and on our way home
It was a great trip. Just not long enough. The 500 is coming up so might just make it down there soon. Hope you enjoyed the stories and pix
