The Many Roads To Baja

Many roads lead a motorcyclist to Baja, but only a few bring him back. That's the curse of the blessed, sun soaked Peninsula. Once you've experienced the nights and inhaled the smells, once you've listened to the sounds and seen the sights, and once you've ridden the roads and explored the trails, a part of you remains.Author G.B. Hilton didn't know this when he set out on his motorcycle, laden with gear and spares, for a sojourn of unplanned duration that would take him into the heart, dust, heat, and humidity of the Baja Peninsula. But he soon learned that Baja is more than just a destination, it's also a state of mind, one you never truly leave behind.This passionate, humorous, and personal tale is more than a travel story, more than an overland adventure, and more than a paean to a fascinating part of the world. It's also one man's story of escaping his present to discover an unexpected future far from home. With keen observations and vivid writing, Hilton brings adventure motorcycling and the people and places of the Baja Peninsula to life. The result is much like the book itself: moving, poignant, funny, and unforgettable.
