BAJA 1000 – THE CHALLENGE

The story goes back to 1962, when Dave Ekins and Bill Robertson Jr. decided to challenge each other to see who could cover the distance between Tijuana and La Paz the fastest. So, they grabbed a couple of motorcycles and gas!

To verify their travel time and give more legality to the competition, they stamped a paper in the Telegraph offices in each town they passed through.

This first competition was won by Dave Ekins with a time of 39 hours and 54 minutes, while Bill Robertson recorded the time an hour later at the telegraph office.

This is how one of the toughest and most legendary races in motorcycling worldwide was born. That's why our BAJA 1000 model is made to withstand the most extreme conditions and is a tribute to the great riders who have the courage to ride the Baja.
