Today mid-afternoon at the restaurant at Chapela! This is a guided tour they supply wheels or bring your own! 3rd day out on the way to Cabo! 3 rollovers so far. $5-6K includes meals and lodging! Rollovers extra! Looks like lots more Baja newbes!

Looks fun, can't wait to get my SXS down to Baja. I'm putting a Tecate to Cabo ride together for a bunch of friends the year after next. Everyone pays their own way, so it won't be crazy $$$$.
Working on a ride back for all of our rigs from Cabo so we don't have to make a return run as well.

Suggestion!

Lots of empty flatbed trucks headed north that went south with rebar!

Any more photos of the new Chapala restaurant building (inside or out)?

David,

No, food is still great, lot’s more customers but no major changes inside, the old location is now a store with an SOS box in front of the old location.

Group Razor tours seem to be a new upcoming thing though. This was the 3rd one just this month.

They were selling these earlier, they’re selling can cozies now! Pictures of the store when we’re by in a couple of weeks! 94f there yesterday! 66f at the 28th!

Thanks.
Yes, The Eagle Monument (at 28° Parallel) is by the Pacific Ocean and the May-Gray, June-Gloom is normal. Laguna Chapala is in the center of the peninsula and thus dryer/ hotter.

I have some photos of the front door, inside and out as well as the menu from when we were there. I have sent them to David K.

RFClark - 5-17-2022 at 07:11 PM

Ours are posted on the Google review for the restaurant! I didn’t realize David hadn’t seen the review!
