San Quintin and Gonzaga??? It would be one or the other on a La Paz run as these both are on opposite sides of the peninsula on north-south roads.
I do hear they are doing the traditional run to La Paz, however.

Ah so... when you say 'stops along the way', you are not talking about the Baja 1000 racers... 10-4!

OK, I see the plan. Paul's going to race to La Paz and get me to bring his bike back while he parties and flys back with Capt. Mike

I don't have any hard plans yet other than following the race and helping where I can. Paul, I can make room to bring your bike back if you need me
to. Capt. Mike's fiesta grande offer sounds good too.
