Home, The Series Finale - Baja Divide Cape Loop - Bikepacking Adventure Ep 9
What a bikepacking adventure this has been! After nine days we complete the Cape Loop of the Baja Divide in Los Frailes.
The Baja Divide may be one of the hardest bikepacking routes in the world. Last year, Eric Archer and I completed most of the route from San Diego California to the Southern part of the East Cape just South of La Paz Baja California Sur. This year we decided to pick up where we left off and complete the Cape Loop- a 250 mile loop, off pavement and often through very remote sections of beautiful Baja Mexico.
Join us on this adventure as we explore the Southern tip of the Baja Peninsula.

The KTM 390 Adventure is the best Bike I´ve owned in 25 years. It can do EVERY Road under its wheels very, very well!
I like your call...i think all Americans should get together and do this and Just talk to one another and get away from the constant FOG!!!!! It is Killing us.
Amen to that! Thanks for watching.
Are mtb's better than fatbikes for the job in Your oppinion?
No. Not in the sand and not if you are too heavy.
Riding together is one way to go, solo has its good points, you seem to ride well together and I like the pace and bante. Keep it up Ryan supports you 100 percent. SJ
Thank you for all the support!
Fantastic video. Amazing memories. Part 3!!!
Stay tuned for Part 3!!!!
Wow! I guess I’ve been under a rock. I was thinking this was a posting of last years bike journey in Baja! Stupid me thinking that NO ONE would want to do this twice in a lifetime 😂 Now to head back and re-start this years journey. Thanks for Sharing Michael!
Ha Ha! At least I caught you on the last vid in the series!
Can you use the starlink app with a third party router ?
Yes. You can still use the app
Drive the globe are you kidding me how about drive around in your backyard
@@user-nh5ik4ht9e nah. Don’t want to be like you.

Thanks for watching.
Man, as I watch my way through this little series, I’m realizing it’s just one more thing I didn’t know I needed to experience until now!! Thanks for sharing the adventure.. Safe travels friend 🤙🏼
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching.
Can relate peace and quiet with a good friend, you look like your getting in shape and riding stronger. Be well be safe. SJ
Thank you!
Merino wool “Bob Barker” shirt/sweater may have been a questionable decision???!!!
It is a look. Now its famous!
👍😍
Thanks for watching
👍👏👏👏😍🙏
🙏
I have seen the Baobab overlander in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho on July, 15th, 2024. Cool vehicle!
Small world. Thank you.
Dream truck
Thank you.
👍
Thanks man
Fond it
Thanks for watching
I'm sat here after a double clavicle factor looking at someone 66 doing this, just lifted my spirits 😊
Hang in there and get well soon. Glad we could be inspiring though.
Great video- what a great adventure
Glad you enjoyed it. It sure was an adventure.
What was the average distance per day that you rode?
I would say 20-30 miles typically.
Great video Michael. That was a beautiful section!
It was indeed! Makes me want to go ride the Divide again if I can ever get on a bike again.
Your riding skills seem to improve every time I watch you, keep up the good vids enjoy the content. I'll be watching gentleman. Baja is tough. SJ
Thanks for the support!!
Who ever has the playing cards clipped in the spokes of their wheel needs to mute it down a little .
Ha Ha. Modern bike issues.
44 missed calls..... no F''ks given lol
Ever, Never.
Is that your Land Rover
Yes it is, 1965 Series IIA.
Looks like a cattle trail you are trying to follow. Major strugglefest!!
Ha ha. Yeah. It wasn’t much more than a cattle track.
Awesome footage & way better conditions than the last big trek. You both exude incredible mental toughness
Thanks Ralph. It is always a struggle bus.
Bushwhacking arroyo was better suited for cows!
Ha ha. Yep! Less bushwhacking and more riding would be good.
Hi yall is there a name where to buy those according steps it’s hard to find
They are tork lift glow steps. Can be gotten online at etrailer
the bike looks amazing! and the loading is epic
Thank you! And thanks for Watching.
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for watching!
Where do you have the Battle born batteries stored on this build?
The batteries are in one of the pods at the very front top of the habitat M1079 box.
Are you able to ride side by sides on the divide trail ?
Yes, many parts of it. There are certainly some sections that are more single track though.
Thanks for sharing
My pleasure, thank you for watching.
For a guy who delights in being off the beaten path and being self sufficient, your helmet bouncing around on your bike rack probably won't help much if you're out there and crash.
True. I guess that is the old school old guy coming out. Still here after growing up without a helmet in sight.
Old school = no helmet, really? You've kind of lost me. Nice truck build though. Good luck.
@@texaspinzgauer Thank you.
It's been 3 months since we finished the Cape Loop and we still haven't decided on our next adventure!!
We better start working on that.
Awesome! I have ridden that route many times on my moto, but on a a bicycle, that it impressive. I love the the cactus preserve in El Rosario. Very well done and interpretive trail.
Thanks man!
Are lights 12v or 110v?
Lighting is 12 volt
Konnte diesen Teil leider nicht anschauen, dieses üble Gelaber und Selbstdarstellung nervt dermaßen....musste abstellen
Maybe you were in a grumpy mood.
Holy crap...You just passed me on 550 in Colorado....you were headed north....
Awesome! Small world.
Just watched the vid of this truck tour on another channel and came to see what you have been up too. This think is amazing whoever got it for 140k is a steal
Thanks for visiting. Market is a little soft for these trucks right now I believe.
@@drivetheglobe awesome channel after I commented on this vid I’ve been binging your vids for the last five days. You seem like an awesome person, keep bringing the smiles and joy with you!
I'll give you a lot of credit fat tire bikes are some serious exercise. You will get stronger every day. Enjoy the vids, keep on trucking my friends have been there know the pain. SJ
Thank you for the kind words.
Love reliving the fun through your videos!
Thanks so much Ryan, just editing the video makes me want to go back.
Hey Ryan how is John and Mira, haven't heard from them in awhile. Been watching your trips with Jaba very entertaining. SJ
Another great episode. Grat trip and video.
Thank you Gary!
you guys inspire mental toughness! Nice video coverage as always. Stay the course!
Thank you Ralph!
Watching this made me run out a buy some frijoles!! Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner of champions!
Ha ha! Definitely taste better than they look.
That ramp is sick!!
Honestly, the ramp is my favorite part of the truck. Ha ha, always all about the moto!
Again, an incredible build! You've outdone yourself in this build.
Thank you so much!!
