Chris,
While you are selling those dictionaries.....check your spelling:light:

I need to buy $80 apiece German tires so I wont need pavement when my patches run out.
The $33 WTB tires don't have the bead for tubeless inflation, or I'm a bad mechanic? There must be a way to buy myself off Mex 1.

You have to get out more....read a bit more:light:



With respect to you, not sure what you are saying motoged.

I just though what I read from ANOTHER poster was funny, such as the one below.

Hey ChrisX, when you first appeared here you were as nice as a big bowl of menudo. Now after your peddling suarez down the peninsula you come out swinging like a Joe Peluca doll. Did some
"Gringo wanna hump hump" honey break your heart down there?

It must be cold and 25 feet of snow up in your area of Canada. Ready for Baja? !

Okay, I will speak a bit slower:lol:

I get it that you were blowing coffee out your nose re: somebody else's funny post.....I just didn't think it was the funniest thing I ever read on BN....that's all:light:

As for the weather report for BC, it is several degrees above freezing, the snow is melting rather than falling, and I am always ready for Baja....just a few life events slowing down the prep for 2 weeks of dirtbiking Baja in February.... I sure hope things work out so I can make my pilgrimage.

:cool:




Don't believe everything you think....

Why is it that you choose to be more holy than the highway crowd and do you get some kind of moral superiority out of thinking that you are the only one in the world that is cool enough to go into the back country with a Mountain Bike in Baja and then make snide political comments about someone's political persuasion just because it is different than yours. That certainly shows some real in-depth thinking and evaluation on your part.

I rode most of that same section with a couple of friends and actually ended up in Scorpion Bay and then back and knew that when I hit the highway, that the game had changed and I had to take into account that the highway was primarily there for a whole different useage. And, to top it off, I happen to prefer listening to Rush Limbaugh and (God Forbid) Glenn Beck because I happen to see the world in a very similar political vein. But I have the maturity and decency to not get into a diatribe about how you are wrong not to see things the same way I do, but I would imagine I could find some commanality to share with you about the trip even though you are so blind sided politically.


Funny, I couldn't find a thing in the post that you cite that makes a reference to the politics of the original poster. You, on the other hand, seem to one big chip on your shoulder.

What the original poster stated was that he really enjoyed doing what he did, as, aparently you did, too. But then, he also relayed his experiences on Highway One, which supports my own riding experience down the Peninsula some years ago. And that is; that Mexicans seem to take foreign bicyclers in stride and willingly share the road, while a few Americans (can't say that I remember any rude Canadians on my trip) seem to want to run them over. If you saw some politics in that statement, that's a reflection on your politics, not his. When I (a progressive) see a bicycle rider on the Transpeninsular, I think "more power to you!" and little else. Wonder what it is about so many of the Rush/Beck crowd that makes them so "like that"? (now that, my conservative friend, is a political view).

INCROYABLE. TdF biking. France you know... I cycle....
Gee itsa long trip. LONG. Out in the middle of ....LONG. If you get saddle sores then LONGER. Tough ride. develop all kinds of bike wierdness vs Chevy drivers.
If a car comes up then get off the road. Its not like there's a stream of traffic. And it is dangerous. A semi crash went by me past big mesa in the High badlands while I was eating lunch on a knob. Soon, I expect to see a tail dragging Caravan with 7 people, Granny, a dead goat and roll of reinforcing mesh on the roof rack pass me, go straight on at the next corner over the cliff. That's it.
Its not like I'm holding up traffic.
