Baja California, Mexico Motorcycle Journey

[@VictorCastillo-xu4eu]

Great vid, I live in Cabo and we have a group that ride frequently around the area, next time you or the guys watching your videos visit let me know, we will show you around or we can offer assistance here. Im happy you enjoyed my state!

[@davidvance3527]

Offers like this is what make the riding comunity so amazing. Never leave a rider stranded. 👍

[@forzared101]

What is it like riding Highway 1? Any danger spots to look out for/ avoid? I've always wanted to ride from San Diego to La Paz or Cabo.

[@rideoregonfirst]

@@forzared101 Yeah, lotsa danger,....but they call it ADVENTURE in Mejico

[@garyteague4480]

Victor thanks for offering him this , your the kind of people that make our world a better place

[@VictorCastillo-xu4eu]

@@forzared101 it’s a narrow, beautiful road (specially de second half coming south.) dangers is riding at night, some black cows on the road. Go for it!

[@eddcurry1245]

Tim, your real personality has been really shining out lately. You have come so far out of your shell. It’s great to see the real you in/through your videos this past year.

[@johnmills4531]

I’m inspired, didn’t realize it’s only 52 hours of riding from Toronto to Tijuana! Thanks for the great videos.

[@Neworldisordered]

Only 51hours from Hamilton!

[@gpr2264]

Thanks for visiting beautiful Mexico, you are always welcome Tim!!!. 🇲🇽

[@twagn]

Nice, I would never think Baja was so beautiful ....only brown desert

[@advwradventurewesternrider115]

Just another wonderful video! Thanks for the share! Drive Safe, Drive Fun!

[@superponch2676]

You are more than welcome in Mexico. Hope you can soon complete that ride. Stay and ride safe!! Love your video.

[@islmhh]

The mission you showed in Santa Rosalia was actually designed and pre-fabricated by Alexander Gustav Eiffel in France and was put on display at the Paris Worlds Exhibition in 1887 along with a pretty famous tower that Eiffel also designed. After the exhibition the church was taken down and put in storage where it sat for many years until it was purchased by the owner of the Boleo mining company in Santa Rosalia, shipped across the ocean and erected at its current location. Thanks for another great video..! Brought back many good memories...

[@MRMRS2wheeler]

Great documentary style video. Love the edit. Beautiful scenery, nice roads, and atmosphere. Loved the whale, so COOL!!! Thanks for bringing us along.

[@nicholasarceri6613]

Baja is top of my bucket list, as a biker and former 2x Baja bug owner every time I see a video from there I think about it more and more

[@pinball2002]

Thanks for sharing. Adding Mexico to my list of places to ride now :)

[@user-zo6xg8bx4l]

Great video, but....CLEAN YOUR WINDSHIELD in the morning!

[@juanacosta4255]

Gracias . Thanks, nice pics and scenarios.

[@TravisSteeves]

You really captured the magnificent beauty of the Baja. So much history, beautiful scenery and amazing people. I flew into San Jose del Cabo in January. I rented a van and did some traveling around southern Baja. I can’t even begin to explain the kindness and amazing culture I experienced. I went to a few remote places where no minivan should be but the memories will stay with me a lifetime. Can’t wait for your journey to resume! Thanks for the great video!

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

You've got me daydreaming of my time in Baja :P Thanks Tim

[@douglasmacy709]

Great video Tim, I’ve been bouncing in and out of Mexico for about 7 years. It makes me smile when you stop into places I’ve already been thank you for recapping

[@verbalwidget7267]

Thank You, Tim, Great story about the trip, I have been Hesitant to take the bike down into Mexico, but you have planted a seed. Awesome video that I somehow missed until 1/2022. great adventure.

[@angelramtiz6309]

Tim, I love your videos, but this trip is over the top. I've watched it multiple times and don't get bored of it. 😊

[@FTAAdventures]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed this one, I had a blast making it.

[@angelramtiz6309]

@@FTAAdventures My buddy and I are planning a similar trip for November 2023. 👍🏼

[@edreilly6674]

Nicely composed! I like the mix of narration followed by riding/scenic video, and the music is perfect!

[@bradb2514]

Excellent video. The format with music, narration, maps, etc. Really nice. You’ve inspired me to consider a trip I never thought I would do. Thanks!

[@robertplante1681]

Tim, I've been following you for about 6 months. Mega great info I've used. I retire 31 Jul this year and I've been planning an Alaska trip for about a year...leaving out of Mexico (we have a home in Puerto Penasco, AKA Rocky Point) on 1 Aug. But since this whole COVID thing blew up, I've been holed up in Rocky Point for the last 2 and half months...but my bike is in Arizona! Ugh. So really cool to see this video on the Baja ride....I might be altering my plans if the Canadian border doesn't open up! La Paz is a really great place!

[@videobiker9131]

I remember being in Baja California! A real study in contrasts. Your talk of the wineries reminded me of Orient Point on Long Island, NY.

[@seankantorow2910]

Great video, Tim. Thanks for posting. Makes me want to try a trip to Baja as well. Especially like including the missions and the whale watching. Looking forward to your next video.

[@solobymoto]

Tim I love this episode buddy I’ve watched it like a zillion times. I am preparing to head down solo this fall and would love to pick your brains on some tips, pointers and all around things to see, do, etc. -Tim in San Diego

[@Boxer1250RT]

Wow! Living the Dream!

[@dnlgrhm]

This is a really nice format. Some talking, some maps and some video from the road, beach or where ever - fantastic.

[@josearmenta9515]

took this trip from Las Vegas to la paz and back on a 2003 Vulcan 800 cc..best trip of my life

[@randallyouness8626]

Great video Tim. I live in Baja, 4 hours south of the border on the Pacific ocean, 6 months of the year. If you ever want a riding companion in Baja, I'm your guy. There's so much to discover and do in Baja, you'll never tire of it.

[@Rikenglebert7558]

Oh my goodness! Not sure how I missed this video! I pride myself on being among the first fifty or so viewers :-) Outstanding video!!! Looks like a dream:-) I have been to Baja but would be thrilled to go back via momo. I’ve done a tiny bit of research & I don’t see a restriction on vehicles that aren’t paid off. I see that one must jump through more hoops but it looks possible. Did I misunderstand you, did you say that you “couldn’t” ride in Mexico because you don’t own your bike yet? Great video, really professional!!! Peace

[@FTAAdventures]

For riding in mainland Mexico you need aa vehicle permit, they was to see proof of ownership or a letter from the lien holder giving you permission to take the bike into Mexico. My lien holder wasn't as confident as me about riding in Mexico so I have to wait to pay the bike off first.

[@Rikenglebert7558]

FTA Adventures gotcha. Wish I had the money, I’d pay your bike off for ya... after I paid MINE off of course (-:

[@williamgibbs9672]

I loved that video Tim. Very well done.

[@mburnett274]

I liked how you added the map to show you progress.

[@kennethvernonprivate]

Great video Tim!...love the addition of the animated map...

[@rosemaryus-ct6151]

awesome scenery; beautiful buildings

[@frfrpr]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful adventure. This really makes me want to get back on my bike.

[@SteelHorseman]

Another home run Tim!!

[@LawrenceBroussard]

The best part is your able to accomplish your dreams and still have a note on your bike. I am not happy your bike not paid off, but i am happy your accomplishing your dream.

[@rickmarcum9842]

I will be leaving the Detroit area in a few weeks to make this same adventure. I’ve been watching your vids for packing tips. Now here is a great vid previewing my trip. Great vid, great trip.

[@videobiker9131]

This video reminds me of my own trip to Baja California. It’s really really beautiful down there I didn’t realize that there was wine country down there. Thank you very much

[@johnroethel5527]

Hey Tim, another great vid. I was thinking of an idea for a follow up video out lining the costs of fuel, food and accommodations. I think people would be surprised at the affordability of a trip such as yours. Safe travels.

[@doktordice9219]

Felt like I was right there with you ! Great video . Absolutely beautiful scenery

[@MontysMotoAdventures]

Hey Tim, great video - like the format. Ride safe.

[@michealmcneill2294]

Thanks for sharing. I have never been to the Baja yet, but I will eventually make it there. I really enjoyed central Mexico when I was down there 10 years ago. Can't wait to go back. The scenery is spectacular.

[@TopoPilot]

Your videos inspire me to be less anxious and ride my motorcycle to far away places. I love exploring the BDR's here in the states but Mexico is such an amazing destination, I can't stop thinking about taking that ride!

[@rideoregonfirst]

I'm not sure I'll ever make it to Baja, but it sure was fun watching YOU go there!

[@Road_Rash1]

Just amazing scenery. Glad you made it down....and back!

[@chrisd4283]

Great job Tim with the documentary and the music. I feel like I missed a lot of things from my trip so it was god to see what other areas I need to visit next time.

[@rollotherichkid5224]

One of your best! BTW I keep a wet Sham Wow in a baggie for cleaning the windshield and bike.

Incredible video I like how you take the person along to the sites! That’s the main thing that helps tips on the area

[@toastypassenger5111]

Hey Tim! Mexico huh? Very cool, I enjoyed the editing and mixing of this one! Good choice of music👍 I am looking forward to more of your adventures, personally am thinking of heading down towards Cancun and Panama! What a ride that would be. Hope all is well😎

[@noyopacific]

Thanks Tim! I've made many trips to Baja over the years. Being familiar with many of the places that you went it was interesting to see it through a fresh set of eyes.

[@surfman1968]

One of your best videos Tim. Very cool.

[@winduncan9818]

Best video yet! I'd like to see a little supplemental video about motorcycle friendly hotels you would recommend.

[@MrOrchin33]

Great video. Regards from rainy Northern Ireland.🍻

[@carmenmartinez2882]

Hola! I was hoping to see you camping there. I have a second home in San Felipe, I’m retired and an avid tent camper, I want to make a long camping trip all the way to Cabo. I camped at Gonzaga Bay and the winds kick my butt collapsing my tent at 3 AM, lol. Thus I was hoping to see some advice about those winds in a tent. I’m heading there in a few weeks, usually for several months and trying out the same spot but I got a different tent and different stakes, wish me luck hahaha. By the way there are some awesome camping spots on Guadalupe Canyon with water falls and petroglyphs to explore, there are lots of petroglyphs all around Baja, got a book with maps recommended by a friend. Next time bring your tent and explore some more, Baja is a gem in the rough. Thanks for the video, like they say in Baja, “no bad days”.

[@eziodamico633]

Amazing places....thanks to "ride" me there. 👍🤗

[@joaquinchea2620]

Wow been wanting to do this soon. Thanks for the share!

Damn....how did I miss this one. Especially nice on a rainy cold night in the Carolina's.....I have a little S.A.D.....so this helps. Beautiful video/episode.

It ’s great to watch your videos, and I want to travel by bike just like you.👍

[@jspbipro]

New sub...great vid and info. Btw since you did not need to register your bike coming into Mexico do you know if you would be allowed to take it across on the Ferry from La paz to the mainland of Mexico? Also any issues or precautions in terms of safety on your trip..thanks

[@robertperlaki4182]

Great video Tim, Nice scenery and good history. The one town you rode through reminds me of where I am here in the Philippines. So much Spanish influence and history. When the World opens up again, I hope you can continue your trip south.

[@phunguyen6039]

Great trip i m wishing riding my bike now ,brave n did my friend. I will

[@marinoopen]

Great vid. Did you ever think about leading small group trips to Baja etc? Could be a nice revenue stream

[@Kaufeetimevideo]

I would be interested if were on tarmac/paved roads. Rest stop hour to hour & Half.

[@davidivers9295]

Thanks Tim, great video. I've been to many of the places you visited but not on my GS. I'll start planning a trip soon.

[@FTAAdventures]

Thanks David!

[@willmcgregor7184]

It’s a beautiful drive

[@MathQwest]

Awesome. That trip looks like it was fun. I have so much riding to do and so little time. Maybe I need a bike like yours because my Harley isn't going to take me through those trails. Thanks for the video.

[@FTAAdventures]

Thanks Matt! Your Harley can make it to La Paz, the only dirt was off the main route and it's all a beautiful ride!

[@darrylgibb2693]

Nice production Tim and awesome subject matter. The music knitted it together nicely. Don't forget to keep your visor clean 👊 PS I'm still working on emulating your excellent map work in post which gives that extra dynamics.

[@ADVBrett]

That was awesome mate, just makes me want to get out some more and explore so much more on my GS. What an awesome journey mate.
