This was a bit longer ride focused on southern Baja in February. Part of my pandemic motorcycle social distancing campaign.
On this trip we went to Magdalena Bay for whale watching—a first. Then over to Loreto for a multi-day stay on the main square. Did some boating on the Loreto Bay with our friend Rick, who has a winter home there.
For the trip in pictures, go here. For a map of the route, go here.

We have been wanting to ride motorcycles in South America for many years now. Finally the time has come! Colombia will be the first country to visit.
A number of fellow motorcyclists that have ridden in South America reported a fantastic experience in Colombia. In fact, the majority cited it as their favorite place to ride in South America due to the natural beauty, friendliness of the people, culture, and food. Apparently they have a very strong motorcycle culture as well with clubs and groups welcoming foreign visitors.
In a country with about 50 million people, there are 9 million registered motorcycles. About 1 in 5 people has a bike!
So, why are we going on an extended visit to Colombia now during the COVID pandemic?

We liked our brief overnight stay on Vancouver Island as part of last year's Canada ride so much that we went back to spend more time. This time the focus was entirely on the island. No surprise, it was fantastic.
