After a brilliant break in LaPaz, I was keen on getting to Cabo. I was already determined to return here for a visit next year. Surf Camp in El Pescadero was wonderful for camping with great facilities. I was hoping for a beach view but that was far away and involved losing a fair amount…

Incredible day that included a dive through the Fang Ming Wreck located on the west coast of Espíritu Santo Island, in front of El Corralito. A former Chinese cargo ship trying to transport undocumented citizens to California, it became disabled and adrift until it was intercepted by the Mexican Navy, who donated it to create…

First day of headwinds caught me by surprise. Those long gentle uphills became just a bit more painful. Day ending with a long descent slowed by headwinds, saved brakes and forced me to spend more time looking around. Super beautiful landscapes with changing vegetation. Cacti now standing tall between shrubs and grasses. Sea of Cortez,…

A relaxing day of riding with the wind with plenty of spots to stop for a snack or beverage. Camping at the Rancho did not work out as planned but I was able to set up camp a few km later in San Hilario. I have set myself up for a pleasant ride into La…

After a hearty breakfast of Mexican eggs and a bike loaded with 6l of water I was off on a direct route on the salt flats instead of on the sandy and rocky shore road. Losing my way a few times had me deep in sand or deep in salty wet mud. I readjusted, walking…

Left San Ignacio late in the morning to take in the square and Mission bells. The ride started with a climb and then long descent on pavement for 50 km. The final ride beside the salt flats was a sandy gravel road to where the laguna widens. It is in the deeper parts of this…

A long ride up a gentle alluvial fan that starts in the ocean as marshes and salt flats. The ride then skirts the mountains to the oasis town of San Ignacio. The mission here dates back to the early 1700’s. Found a great place to camp right next to town in an established place.
