Some cars you can't just walk past without stopping to take a good look at. They may be old timers, they may have a particular color or interesting accessories. And there there is this old GMC, which qualifies

It is not often that you see a mural blending so well into the overall appearance of the wall it is painted on. And I don't mean painting windows, doors, and balconies with vibrant life onto otherwise

It's been a while, but I am back to the weekly Street Art Contest which is up to number 308. Wow! I remember when it just started out, some ... loooong time ago. Having returned from my trip on the Baja

It's another Saturday, back home in normality, so let me post another beer review. This time it is a brew I came across quite a bit on my bicycle tour of the Baja California, especially on the southern

As my Baja trip was coming to an end I felt a touch of melancholy rise up in me. This was it. Mission accomplished. Now it was time to head back home. After such an adventure, this was the last thing my

On my way back to La Paz I stopped by the town of Todos Santos. Not that I really had a reason for it. It added about 2 km to my ride, but shaved off a bit of climbing. Both pretty insignificant. But it

When I decided to skip the desert and teleport myself to La Paz I thought I would have two weeks of easy cycling. I would make the loop along the coast, hitting the famous diving town of Cabo Pulmo, going

Yours truly has become a cheater. Yeah, riding down the Baja California, he claimed. Cycling through the desert, he was going to do. More than 1000 km on a bike... And now? Happy greetings from La Paz?

Sometimes you get into a place and your immediate reaction is to just run away as soon as possible. That's how I felt when I rolled into San Quintín. The day's ride from Diáz Ordáz had already been hard

After my adventure on the Playa Calavera, I decided to avoid dirt roads from now on, at least on this trip. So I took it as a welcome sign when I heard that the road into the San Pedro Mártir mountains

After Ensenada my next destination was the Playa Calavera. A WarmShower host, who was not there to offer me a place to stay, suggested that I could escape the noise of the busy Transpenninsular highway

The first leg of my journey took me from Tecate to Ensenada. In total 112 km from the hotel to my host's house. Not an easy ride, especially for the first day. Immediately I noticed how much heavier it

It's time for another great adventure! This time La Zorra Roja is going to take me to Mexico, down one of the most beautiful stretches of landscape, the Baja California. After long and careful preparation,
