Click here to see Rene Larrave’s notes of his second and final attempt to cross the Baja peninsula from Tijuana to Cabo San Lucas on a motorcycle. All 1,000 miles. And, then across to the mainland, through Copper Canyon to Big Bend and back to Texas.
In 2012, he had to abort a solo attempt after getting stuck in impassable terrain in the middle of nowhere. After abandoning the motorcycle, walking through the night across mountains and deserts, he managed to put together a search team the next day to go back to rescue his motorcycle.
