ENSENADA, BAJA CA, MEXICO- Bajarallymoto.com announced that Freedom 64 Rally will support the BAJA RALLY 2.0 with a full suite of logistics,
transport, rental and support services for riders tackling Baja CA’s first and only navigation based rally raid for motorcycles this September
24-28th.
Race this Bike In The BAJA RALLY For: $5000.00 (includes full transport, service package & support team)
“The leader of Freedom 64 is Luis Belaustegui, the man who finished the DAKAR on a 150cc 2-stroke KTM after 3 tries”, explained BAJA RALLY creator
Scotty Breauxman, “The mere fact that this hearty man has made it to finish of the longest rally on such a small bike speaks to his experience and
determination to help our riders succeed in Baja CA.”
Belaustegui had been riding with the original Freedom Rally Team since its inception and was a very close friend of Freedom Rally’s founder Mike
Stanfield who died tragically in a diving accident in March. Both Freedom Rally and Stanfield where entered to field 4 riders in the BAJA RALLY before
Mike’s passing.
Starting fresh with new vehicles, rental bikes and DAKAR mechanics, Freedom 64 Rally is a reincarnation of Stanfield’s original vision and will
support at least 4 riders in the upcoming 2015 Dakar Rally.
“We’re extremely excited for the BAJA RALLY 2.0 this fall”, Belaustegui explained, “The purpose of this event is to prepare our riders and teams for
the upcoming Dakar 2015. We look at this as an opportunity to test and tune the bikes in a tough environment, similar to what we can expect in South
America.”
Several international riders have committed to riding the BAJA RALLY 2.0 and Dakar Rally under the Freedom 64 tent including Colombian team mates
Marco Saldariaga, Mateo Moreno and Mexican Carlos Gracida.
Freedom 64 has a limited number of spaces available for service packages and rental bikes for BAJA RALLY 2.0

That looks just like the Dakar Rally bikes that are selling for 30k, wonder if they are insured?
