I think that if I rode a bicycle up that road the natural sound you would hear would be the helicopter coming to retrieve my carcass!

I suppose those beerguts and flabby butt flopping on your dirt bike do constitute a "workout" for couch potatoes physiques. For dirt biker couch
potatoes, walking up a single flight of stairs is an endurance sport.
Sad!

Your vivabaja page about your trip with Baja Mur way back when was partly what gave me the itch to go there, planted the seed, you might say. My
first visit was not until October 2008. We rode 650 class bikes with all our gear and camped out overnight on that trip, too.
I planned to go back in 2010, but it was shortly after the fierce storm that had hit the west coast of Baja and had taken out so many bridges on the
main highway, including the El Rosario bridge. Ralph was reporting from others who had been to the widowmaker, that there was flood debris blocking
the arroyo right past the bottom of The Widowmaker, rendering it impassable at that time. So that trip was postponed.
The footage in my video was shot on my second visit to the mission in 2015, around 12 days after Cameron Steele had brought 26 riders there as part of
his Rip to Cabo ride. We were the next group of bikes to make it in there. Funny to watch the Day 3 Recap of their ride and see guys even on
unloaded dirt bikes struggling with The Widowmaker. It definitely keeps out the riff raff. On our way in, we passed a single, well equipped Jeep with four guys and loads of gear that were on their way out, who had camped out
there the previous night.
Anyhow, I'm headed back out there with friends on light bikes in May to camp out and explore. Hopefully I'll catch some better footage of the
"difficulties" of the route and maybe post up another video.

Sounds great Dave... Yes, Cameron is funny what he puts his guests through! He tried to drive his Raptor to the mission in 2014 to see if it could be
one of the missions for his first Trail of Missions tours... he didn't make it all the way... almost, but not to the mission. Raptor is just too big
without body damage. He called me from Baja Cactus Motel!
We all went in 2010 after the big rain: http://vivabaja.com/msm2010
That included edm1 (Art) in his motorhome, who made it and even pulled a Toyota Tacoma back, that broke down leaving the mission (Neal Johns: I didn't
say it was you)!

I would think if Art's motorhome made it a Raptor could. Maybe it was the driver?

Art was one of a kind. He didn't mind some body damage. Cameron may have not wanted to rip out his rear bumper?

Great video. Those bikes looked like a handful with the weight. I wish I could touch the ground with both feet on my bike.
