Watched it at the premier down in San felipe. Just as good second time around.

As a 3x baja1000 Ironman from Australia and doing it pretty much on my own just with baja pits the butterfly's never go away baja is really special awesome story! hopefully I get back in 2023 or 2024 and run into you guys 👌

[@DeanTubeism]

That's awesome mate! We'll done! Would be great to meet you.

[@brianwills4398]

Your a beast 💪. I can't even fathom trying to ironman the 1000... Best of luck to you..🤙

[@keithclyde733]

My son Kevin in this movie just finished the 24 Baha 1000 as a Iron man. You know what it takes. 48 hours straight on the Bike

[@camillemadrigal5630]

Are you 741x?

[@chriswarwick7028]

@@camillemadrigal5630 no he is not Australian but came from Australia he's actually Dutch and rode great good to see so.w coverage on the ironmen that just go down there and do their best with what they have.

Never forget Mouse McCoy solo of the 1000. He led the race had a get off 80 miles from the Finnish at night. Broke his headlights his collor bone. Followed another competitor to the finnish. Finnished 12 overall. His determination brought tears to ky eyes. Dudes a monster.

[@justinsaunders177]

I remember watching that movie with my dad! Mouse is one of the reason I fell in love with dirt bikes!

[@keithclyde733]

KEEP THE BIKE MOVING 🏍 😎

[@calebb9314]

Anyone who can complete that race on two wheels is an absolute legend in my book! Looks like a blast to me!

[@AchillesofAchilles]

Looks like the life i want, wow.

[@MassageTimeSpa]

Somebody needs to make more documentaries! This was EXCELLENT!

[@OKFrax-ys2op]

Yeah I’m voting for you

[@milesman71]

I am a pack river rat, sure miss being home and looking for the single track!!

[@AchillesofAchilles]

Amazing life. Wish to work hard enough to put my kinds on the Baja 1000 or maybe formula 1, just something great and positive to pass on. My family has no trajectory and no foundation. Baja 1000 would be so awesome to be a bad*ss foundation. Respect to these people, and I wish the best for all racers of all kinds. 🤘🤘

[@alfonsozunigaparada8511]

Welcome to the new famaly, baja is waint you and the desert!!!

[@509FUN]

It tends to help if you get people who actively ride…. But I guess fun trip but not sure if ever expect a win

[@GoDoTheStuff]

Great video! I spent about 40 years racing off-road in the Southeastern U. S. always dreamed about Baja but never made it. Got to watch the Parker 400 a couple of times and my Dad raced Barstow to Vegas when I was a little kid. A blessing that you guys got to fulfill a dream. I hope you do another video for 2023.

[@lifeofhyphen]

Already in pre production ;)

[@tonyh2181]

I got to hang out with Kevin today and I'm watching this after he sent it to me. Badass stuff for sure. You guys are awesome!! I was holding back tears at the end.

[@bobdiaz1534]

This was great just like being there .

[@FieldOfGiants]

Such a great watch, and thanks so much for featuring our music 🙌

[@lifeofhyphen]

Your music was perfect, so glad to have found it!!

[@user-vf3mw7dv2x]

Great Documentary! Glad I came across this movie. Did anyone see a dark silhouette at time stamp 1:01:57 on the left side? I can't figure how it could have been casted there the way it was. I would really like to do this and invite all my old dirt bike buddies I used to have. I can see once you've done it, you have to do it again and again. In fact, I bet your whole year would revolve around preparing for it. TOO MUCH FUN!!! 🏁😎🏁

[@ShawnA-bq6he]

This is the riders shadow cast from another racers light behind him

[@davidrewis3629]

Great movie. I’ve watched it 3 times and the cinematography is great

[@OKFrax-ys2op]

I bet you ran out of popcorn 🍿

Excellent movie great coverage. hope you come back in 2023. and good luck if you do

Makes me want to go to Baja again.... I mean RIGHT NOW!!!

Breath taking. We were on the edge of our seats of 90 mins.

[@freedompanda9438]

Great job, guys. On the race, the movie, the whole thing. Giving Dana Brown a run for his money! 👍🏼 I was tired when I started watching this, thought, “No way will I get 20 minutes into it.” Watched the whole thing, and it FELT like only 20 minutes! I’m just over the hill in Montana, go through your guys area all the time. Keep it movin’!

[@petert8807]

Great effort, great teamwork, great FILM!

What an incredible effort. What an outstanding production. Enjoyed every minute of this. “Sandpoint to San Diego“. Wow, that really puts it in perspective. Wonderful job, all around.

[@lifeofhyphen]

Thanks!

[@GrumpysGarageDave]

Great job, guys .. Everyone involved was awesome .. I wanted to do the 1000 for yrs when I was a bit younger and building bikes and wrenching on them, but it just never panned out .. I thought that I was too old now at 52, but yall may have sparked a new fire in me ... thank you for sharing your adventure 😎👍

[@DeanTubeism]

Go for it! You can do it, reach out if you have any questions

[@GrumpysGarageDave]

@DeanTubeism Thank you Dean .. if that time comes, I will definitely have some questions

[@MrGbustamante]

Great film, great folks. Thanks for making and sharing!

[@offroad8055]

Awesome movie! Almost sounds like Bruce Brown narrating. Sucks about the DQ! Thanks for making this movie…it has inspired me to get out and ride more (just bought a season pass to our local riding area🤘).

[@astro11girl]

Fantastic movie! Raw and real. Really loved it!

[@michaelcox7101]

Love it! Great story, great portrayal if teamwork. Wonderfully editing and music. No prerun? Sad DQ! Great job!

[@jayhopkins1337]

That was great! The sponsors are on the bike. Moving on😂 wow wish i had the means to go down there and race. Stuffed my middle finger into my hand got up and finished my race . Never seen doctor. I pulled it out kinda like you. 👍

Hell ya, great story!

[@brianwills4398]

Well done guys.. seeing this brings back memories of the barstow to Vegas.. raced that one a couple of times but never the 1000. Nothing even comes close to the Baja 1k..

[@bwz7275]

nice job guys ! Baja prep starts tomorrow ,you were only denied second this year to make victory sweeter next year!!!!

amazing documentary congratulations for the race and the awesome team that made all possible!!! i am a new subscriber hope you guys post again for the next year!!!

[@lifeofhyphen]

The team did indeed race again last fall at the Baja 1000, it will be a while before editing is complete, but the race was documented ;)

[@reednash5412]

If you guys need a rider someday, I would love to do it.

[@DesiShahid]

Nice

[@jesusivanrocha9020]

Great video, insporational in so many ways, can I ask you if you use the knee braces flipped side or I am using them wrong Way? (1:08:47)

[@deannewberry5628]

Way2go fasthouse🎉

[@mechcavandy986]

I can’t stand those dune buggy things out they’re. They’re DANGEROUS! 🙀🙀

[@dougfisher1266]

Bravo! Great film. Q: why dont they just send the trophy trucks first, so they arent forcing everyone in front off the track down the road?

[@lifeofhyphen]

The bikes do get a big head start (7-8 hours) but getting caught by the lead trucks is an inevitability for most teams. If the trucks went first, then the broken down trucks would get caught by the bikes, and the process would repeat itself in a different order. It’s part of what makes Baja special and unique from the more…tamed desert races ;)

[@DaxMadden-ee2wf]

This was super cool. So did you guys go back?

[@lifeofhyphen]

Sure did. And we brought some more friends, both on two and four wheels. Got a few more months of editing first 😉

[@kurvball781]

Awesome movie! What do u guys run in the tires? Tubes tubliss bib mouse??

[@lifeofhyphen]

Pretty much everyone’s doing the Bib mousse these days down south. Best option when pits can be 30+ miles apart

[@korsal4133]

Is this race really longer than the Paris-Dakar? LeMans 24 hour race?

[@keithclyde733]

Just as long , if not longer.

[@korsal4133]

@@keithclyde733 I thought the Dakar was about 14 days? and 5,000 km. Sounds to me longer than 1,000 and 24 hours.

[@keithclyde733]

​@@korsal4133, in Dakar they get to sleep at night. THE BAJA IS ALL IN One Single Race.

[@DeanTubeism]

Not by total distance, but there are no stages. The race does not stop. You start keep racing day and night to the finish.

[@ibuti01]

Burnt by the Garmin Explore App doing it's sync and deleting tracks on the GPS because they were not on the App or cloud. I still do not comprehend the logic behind their system and it's always a stressful moment not knowing if all your saved tracks are going to wiped when you need them the most.

[@Kevin-oc1pw]

I don’t remember anybody mentioning it but did you get to prerun?

[@DeanTubeism]

NOPE. that would be epic and highly recommended

[@eloos74]

It has been my dream to ride baja, if you are looking for a rider or want a Ironman bike to join the team let me know.

[@eddwil7]

Much rather hear the motorcycles and not music. I enjoyed watching most of it with volume down.

[@user-nw4fn5qe1g]

Know when to say when

[@foresterbauer]

What type of headlights are those?

[@DeanTubeism]

Baja designs xl 80 dual pro

[@lauriL90]

How dont these guys get armpump i dont understand.

[@Animaleditor69]

Hi Dan it’s Alexis

[@mauriciomalo1153]

SCORE is loosing a lot of credibility and signups are at an all time low because of race ending penalties like that. In the last 1000 the majority of riders in all classes where slapped with some lame penalty like that. SCORE is in a sad state with their excessive use of penalties, they are killing the spirit of the race.

[@ethanshinabarger4390]

Music is soooo loud! Why?

[@billholmes8681]

Should only be allowed a maximum of 3 riders

[@kevinbroadway5398]

looks like the old dood met his wife in baja too

[@lifeofhyphen]

Michael and Anavel met backpacking in her native Peru back in the ‘90s. She’s a huge motorcycle fan and is our best translator. We ❤️ our team.

[@DeanTubeism]

Actually in Peru

[@missourivalleyarms4264]

The Good- great movie. puts you in the action. BAD- music is too loud- can't hear what people are saying.

[@homelight9321]

Holy shit! Love the passion but reduce the amount of riders and make it real.

[@butcherknife59knife46]

Great ride guys way to give it your all!! Good luck next year !! Around Bend Oregon out on 2 wheels

[@kennyb7883]

music drowns everybody out half the time, could barely make out what anyone was saying.

[@sloppytaco9629]

Clean your ears then kenworth

[@bobbyblenio4571]

As Much as I Love Baha…I think Paris to Dakar is the Biggest Baddest Race in the World…well at least it Used to Be🦾
