My old riding buddy, He is 72 now, had quit riding a few years ago, the arthritis has really taken its toll. It seem this warm weather is getting his riding blood stirred up. His friends from the Oakland MC have convinced him he should ride a motorcycle in Baja, and it seems to agree with him. Today he showed up with a Yamaha TW200 that John R from the OMC has offered to him for our trip. Now we are going to take that silly peddle bike out and put the TW in the box of the truck.

It makes me happy we will be riding together again, even if it will be slow, its still gonna be fun

Tom, if you can swap out the front tire on the TW with a trials tire like a MT43. The stock tire is great on pavement, but not so much everywhere else.
