It was a good read-----the guy isn't trying to win the race but just wants to do as well as he can and test his own skills and his goal is to simply finish the race------so what he writes about is what he sees and hears and he does a pretty good job of conveying the spirit of racing from the amateur riders view. It's worth the purchase price.. Neal_M1 said Baja Adventure - Up Close And Personal.. No mention of the damn Vados, but this was a great read and brought back a lot of memories for me. Every Baja event is not just a trip, it's an adventure. Anyone involved in the Score / Baja races will find a lot to identify with. Great job Andy(and pit crew). Thanks!
