Just took a trip to Baja California. Great fun and awesome landscapes!

As usual, lots more pictures at http://thesunhaswings.blogspot.com/2012/04/baja.html



Orange groves near Palomar Mountain, San Diego County


On my way to San Felipe, Baja California


Middle of the scorching desert, Carretera Federal 3 (San Felipe to Ensenada)


And what do you know, bumped into these two Superbike riders on their way to Slab City.

You have ripe oranges this time of Year ??

Sorry fruit trees have become a new hobby and source of frustration.

Nice photo.

Russian Monster



Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Exposed engine...... Check


Poor track handling....... Check


Round headlight........ Check



Lackluster brakes......... Check

I don't see an oil level window to ask about why it's milky.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

Not Italian   ( has Ducati ignition and Brembo front brake )

Not an attractant for the opposite sex   ( not that I would ever use it this way.....but this thing attracts more women that a baby or a puppy or even a baby puppy)

Not 2 wheels (it has 3)  (extras are a bonus)

I have to disagree with that one though... every girl I know always asks me to get "one of those sidecar bikes because I've always wanted to ride in one"

You couldn't be more wrong, plus you can easily get 2 in the sidecar and 1 on the seat. Win...win...win.  ;)
Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.
