Ride On / Fish On! How can you go wrong.

Its the beginning of August and the fishermen have show up as they do every year looking for adventure on the water and in the mountains. The East Cape is well known for its big game fishing and the middle of the summer is the usually the best for catching Tuna, Marlin, Dorado, we saw July come and go with limited success on the fishing but August has turned the page with boats returning with everyone happy well except the fish that are about to be diced, sashimied or grilled to perfection for some of the best comida anywhere! We seem to be in a El Nino year which means our water is warmer than usual near 90 and with these warm waters we get a lot of storm's as in beautiful lightning / thunder shows that make living here a bit exciting as we all welcome the storms with a watchful concern of them becoming something more.

The storms are bringing the rain, making any dirt bike rider smile and especially so when you live in Baja. It appears that this year we will be getting plenty of rain in the mountains, as we know this is where the off road moto heads want to be, playing and gettin' dirty!!

Worth the effort? hell ya!

We have had lots of fun with new clients that have fallen in love with Baja. Booking return trips with more friends and family for more days of riding and adventure here in Baja Sur.
As for the race activities we looked forward to the Coyote 300 with our eye on the prize, the Coyote is very popular racing through the mountains locally with 1000's of fans cheering. Our anticipation turned into disappointment #!!*&#. I broke a chain 100k into the race and from that point, the race switched modes from go fast or go home to repair the bike and finish the race for points. We still had all the fun that a big race brings. As the story goes...we will live to fight again soon!
Thanks CBAT Team and Chiquilin for the chain, Errrr
