Hats off to El vikingo.
Next time, 1000 in the Viking outfit
When asked who the best athlete is in the world I’ve always said, “The guy who solos the Baja 1000 on a motorcycle!” The fools tell me it’s Bo Jackson or LeBron James. They tell me riding a dirt bike is easy compared to what they do. I ask one question to them, have you ever ridden a dirt bike? The answer is almost always no. You will die at Baja if you aren’t ready. Who dies playing basketball or football?

Love it !!!! This is sooo spot on!!! Riding a dirt bike period is always big boy stuff, but Racing the Baja 1000 SOLO by yourself non stop through the entire country, Lebron James don’t stand a fn chance !!! They should be paying the true athletes even a 1/16th of the amount of that human being !

I feel it 100% competitive sports are hard but nothing comes close to motocross. Remember kids soccer, baseball, basketball, football, all require 1 ball. Motocross requires 2.

I've taken some of these offroads to visit my grandma in Ensenada and they're dangerous as fuck, especially at night. And that's without the race aspect and without the locals springing traps and derailing you just to see your vehicle fly in the air and crash for their entertainment. Plus all those long hours without sleep, Viking gets my respect.

Very rarely ,,, the cartel doesn’t want attention brought to themselves in any way , most of the time we feel much safer in Baja then we ever do in America anymore !

@@Media66inc yea I read up on it they said one time the cartels shot and killed a couple buys racing it in trophy trucks. Prolly cause they wanted the TROPHY Trucks So they could use them to run drugs
May be they should let the truck take off first
