| Bmw Denver It seemed like I rode fifty miles that night with no light. From there we jumped on HWY 1 and I rode behind the chase truck to where Tony was waiting for us with new lights. |
| Bmw Columbus Ohio We did another wheel change and the new race lights were installed on the bike then Tony took off to complete his section. Bmw Denver. Megla reports: I was the rider from San Ignacio (mile 554) to Loreto (mile 776) and from Insurgentes (mile 855) to checkpoint 9 (mile 943) In San Ignacio the bike showed up late because of a blown headlight fuse in the wiring harness. |
| Bmw Cleveland Ohio This was the pit where we had to change to stock headlight with the Baja lights. I left San Ignacio about 6:45 and tried to make up as much time as possible. Bmw Columbus Ohio. We had dropped back to around 38th overall. |
| Bmw Pittsburgh The course from here was fast graded roads sandy roads and tidal flats with a few muddy spots on the Pacific coast before it turned inland to the town of La Purisma. From La Purisma it was a lot of old washed out rocky roads to the Gulf side of the coast. Bmw Cleveland Ohio. The last 60 miles into Loreto was the toughest part of my section. |
| Bmw Norfolk Virginia Some parts were brand new road freshly cut just for the race. Bmw Denver. It was twisty tight and technical with a lot of sand washes and rocks. |
| Bmw Usa 1st and 2nd gear for long sections. I passed about eight riders three with broken bikes and had a troublefree ride. Bmw Denver. I arrived in Loreto at 11:45 p. |
| Bmw Charlotte North Carolina m then jumped into our chase truck and drove to Insurgentes for the next section. Bmw Denver. Peter Postel was scheduled to ride the HP 2 Enduro from Loreto but a slight change occurred. |
| Bmw Monmouth New Jersey The original plan was for me to ride Loreto to the finish said Postel however Tony came in and said he was feeling great so the decision was made for me to push hard through the next section to stay ahead of the Trophy trucks and then he would get back on the bike. We checked the bike when he pulled in and the rear tire was completely gone so we changed it there. Bmw Denver. The amount of spectators were unbelievable even at 1. |
| Bmw Raleigh South of San Javier there was a lot of water left over from the hurricanes. Postel went on to say I believe about 27 water crossings. Also the course was extremely rocky riding over boulders for miles. Bmw Denver. I passed six other riders in this section. |
| Bmw Hartford, Bmw Jacksonville Florida Then going out to the highway lots of single lane silt. Bmw Denver. From there to the finish there were big silt beds to the ocean some so deep the cylinder heads were dragging. Bmw Cleveland Ohio. This was an area to just get through and survive. Bmw Pittsburgh. Postel did just that before handing off to Megla who had this to report: When Pete arrived he was completely soaked from all the water crossings. Bmw Denver. I got back on the bike at around 2:30 in the morning. |
