I think that’s what he is asking, eh?
Woke!

will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.”

Could start by sharing what he's heard. I'm pretty sure it's more than what he posted.

I am at San Carlos, south of El Rosario and the lease holder of the property here flew in yesterday and a friend of his, a helicopter pilot that flies
down here got contacted about flying to bay of LA to look for this guy. Not enough range to fly there and was rounding up a plane to fly down when he
was told the rider was found and deceased. That's all I know.

Do a search for Bill Nichols. TMW has posted trail routes for Bill's single track routes in the past.

Not too far away
22 day trail
Campershell trail
No wimps trail
Green door trail
Probably more that I don't know about.

thread deleted. Sorry for any trouble I may have caused

Sometime around February 5
Tourist found dead in area between Punta Prieta and Santa Rosaliíta.
A man, apparently of Dutch origin, was traveling on his motorcycle in the company of three other people, between Bahía de Los Angeles and Santa
Rosaliíta.
At some point on the road, the travel companions of the man between 60 and 65 years of age realized that he was no longer with them and they began
retracing the route they had just traveled in an attempt to locate him. Authorities were then notified when they failed in that attempt.
However, the motorcyclists did not give up and once again returned back to the area they had previously searched and were finally able to find him in
the desert, but unfortunately he was dead.
With information from Zeta Tijuana
