Good luck with that.

Baja is cool just be careful a lot of opportunistic assholes down there.

One time I was there I was standing on the third floor of a hotel and watched these two guys on a beat up street bike grab a full size floor jack off a trailer. The guy on the back puts this thing on his lap and they ride off into the sunset.

But there are a lot more super cool people too.

I was pre-running the 500 one year and we lost the battery tray and the battery flipped and ended up in the fan leaking shit everywhere. We cut a seat belt out of the truck to tie it down not realizing the the battery acid would melt the material and back into the fan it went.

Needless to say it was a slow drive from there. Knowing we couldn't or shouldn't turn off the truck we pressed on. It was getting dark and we were out of food and water.

We came in to a small town ( four shacks and a store) Would you believe it they had a battery that would fit good enough to get us back to Ensenada. SOLD!! We asked them if there was a place to get something to eat and drink close to there.

This guy comes over and starts talking about how he is from the States and comes down here to disc the fields for crops. I always thought it was the other way around.

He tells us to go down the road a couple of miles to this vegetable stand and ask for Maria, Tell here Jose' sent us and she will get us something to eat.

So we roll down there and this lady said come on in and sit down. Were like where? She takes us into here house, sits us down in her kitchen, throws the kids outside and starts making us tacos.

I think those were the best tacos I have ever had. We asked her what do we owe you? She didn't want to take the money at first so we threw her a bunch of money for her troubles and away we went.

Don't try this today. This was in the 80's
