1,000 Miles in Baja on Honda Monkeys
Pretty decent video of 2 guys riding tiny 125 bikes to La Paz. The most interesting part is when they come in from MX 1 to San Evaristo.

Conditions couldn't have been much worse through there. Entertaining video. BTW, those two are pretty well known Moto journalists and both are very
good riders. Good testimonial for Honda quality!

They made the mistake of leaving Loreto way too late.

Fun video THANKS !
I'fn you dig that then check out the Adventurists https://www.theadventurists.com/
They've been doing the Monkey run Puru and monkry run Morocco for a while.
But their Mongol rally is the "beat-all road trip rally" !

Since I've given up all hope, I feel much better

Great video indeed. I like how they were laughing and joking all the way to the finish. Great spirit!

They were sneaky. They put scenes out of order.
Go from some beach near San Felipe to mixing in shots from San Rafael. And then continue the journey to Coco's next.
The same on the San Evaristo road to La Paz. The grounded ship is towards the end of the road. They then go backwards towards the beginning in the
next shot.

Good eye! I was amazed at how much the camp at the end of the San Felipe beach looked like Pancho's old camp. It looks like it took a lot of editing
to come up with that route!
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

Yeah, some editing going on there. At 3:39 it looks like they are heading into Maneadero Valley then changes to somewhere else.
Cool vid.

They're too young to need it, just a little Tequila in the evening.
