Baja 2011 or 2012?

This is the first time I rode Baja. I was solo at the time and riding a custom made Bilenky long tail. I was hauling up to 40 liters of water as I would want to stay in remote surf spots for as long as possible. I still ran out of water a number of times.
The bike weighed so much fully loaded that if I could not pedal it up the hill the chances where I could not push it up with out unloading it first.
That was the hardest trip of my life both physically and mentally by far.

a longtail in this vid but I think I've seen you also recommend a wayfarer trailer for bicycle-surfing adventures - which do you think is the better choice? Tho it has occurred to me that a van is the better choice if i want to surf.....maybe bicycle in places with no waves....

Yeah a van is best option

[@PariahSojourner]

Eddie would go.

Shackleton approved

I guarantee if that was a crust model, it would sell.

I have my doubts. Surly and Salsa both made fat long tails right?
