Baja UTV - Side by Side Rally
Join us this Saturday May 16th on a great UTV (Side By Side) ride starting and finishing in Rosarito Beach, right at the FORD Dealership, located just before the first entrance to downtown Rosarito on the free road. From there we’re heading all the way to Hacienda Santa Veronica in Tecate, for a great Lunch and then back to Rosarito Beach.

IMPORTANT
The course WILL NOT BE MARKED!!! It’s a group ride.
Your have to follow the leaders
NO RACING, and NO RISKING anybody.

DIRECTIONS TO START AND FINISH
Coming South from Tijuana on the toll road, take the last exit into Rosarito Beach, before the AM/PM Gas station. As you reach the main Blvd. in front is the Rosarito Beach Hotel. Pull inside their parking and after the gate, head into the far right parking lot. We’ll gather all the vehicles there…

If you’re coming South from Tijuana on the FREE Road, as you enter Rosarito, and you go over the bridge, join the toll road, and exit on the south entrance to the Rosarito Beach Hotel as above.

THE COURSE
A total of 150 miles of pure FUN awaits you in this great ride. Starting downtown Rosarito, heading out towards the Mountains, through some of the Ejidos Private Properties (we have permission for ONE TIME pass only) then out to the back lands, with beautiful scenery, and some water crossings. Make sure you bring your camera. Should take us about 4 hours each way.

The leaders will make sure we regroup every time there’s a split, or leave a trace to where the course goes. There’s two sections of highway crossing, one for less than a 1/4 mile and the second for about 3 miles, there will be two official stops, one for drinks and the other to re-fuel if needed (announce at drivers meeting) this is back and forth.
The half way point is the beautiful facilities of Hacienda Santa Veronica, that will cater a delicious Carne Asada and some cold refreshing drinks.
The ride back, will leave at 3PM to arrive in Rosarito around 7PM.
