Coco's corner

In our way to Highway 1, we stopped at Coco's corner, which is a traditional place for the Baja races.

 

Coco's corner is a very unique place, and Coco a cool guy. We unfortunately did not meet him personally. We saw a truck that slowed down to a stop when we drove by them. Later we learned that it was Coco and he was actually stopping to give us any advice or help we might need, and to check the pressure in our tires. Apparently, many people travel the gravel roads with too much air in their tires, which leads to damaging the tires and not having good stability.
During the Baja races, people that camp at Coco's corner leave a present behind which gets displayed there as you can see on this picture.




Soon after leaving Coco's corner, we got to the Highway and started moving faster.
