- Get rested, we have more epic days ahead.
Day 11- Cabo to Loreto Mulege (316 Miles)
You will be tired.
You will want nothing more than a cold drink and local delicacies.
- While surrounded by the warm coastal waters and unspeakable scenery.
- You will close your eyes, with a full belly and invigorated spirit.
- Each mile we burn is that much closer to the end.
Day 12 – Loreto to Guerrero Negro (259 Miles)
A relatively fast day that allows for further relaxation and an opportunity to visit the western coast of Baja.

- You and your bike have become one with the culture and beauty of Baja Mexico that frankly most will never experience.
Day 14- San Felipe – Calexico (125 Miles)
We part ways and return to the USA.
For most this is bittersweet.
