anyone have a copy of this video i can buy?

At Viva Baja #3 (you were there), Kris ('La Tijereta', formerly 'BajaHwy') donated a copy for a door prize. We all got to see the movie before the
party ended. Perhaps he knows how to score you a copy?
The new action film 'Dust to Glory' about the last Baja 1000 to La Paz race, will be in theatres next April. Those of us who went to the Off Road Expo
got to see a preview. It looks really good!
thx David

yeah, i remember- 1st time i ever saw it too. it's on ebay DVD at $19.95 but too much to pay for 30 min film. i am hoping someone will have a used VHS
they'll sell cheap or loan and i'll make a DVD.
dust to Glory will be on DVD easily as soon as it makes a short run thru theaters, too specialized of a topic for wide audience interest to support a
theatrical release IMHO inspite of how good it is - and it is spectacular. I watched some of the camera guys interviewing Steve Hengelveld at RM 205
last year. very cool.

Of interest, the film location director for Dust to Glory is m/c racer Kevin Ward who is a Baja Nomad and is perhaps the only human to take a
motorcycle up to Mision Santa Maria and back, from Gonzaga (on the Camino Real).

David you've hiked in to or near Santa Maria from Gonzaga so maybe we should have another Nomad trip to do the same. Sometime next spring, holiday
weekend or whenever.

Yes... I want to go all the way to the mission like Don Jorge did a week or two after Chris and I got 2/3 of the way there and ran out of time, due to
a late start.
