Awesome story. Finished 9th.
Meet DUTCHY. (Wouter-jan V Dijk)
#741x just finished the Baja1000 late last night. His story is incredible. The off road world is buzzing about his race. Short version….He flew from Australia, bought a used bike in San Diego. (2015 KTM 500). Rode it to San Filipe in the southern end of Baja, thus balding his new tires. Bought, borrowed and scraped together the required safety gear in order to pass tech inspection, barely. Has no sponsors. No pit crew. Didnt pre-run anything. Racing alone, IRONMAN Class. He took the race by storm, LEADING for 400 miles and just finished last night with a bent front rim and tire held together by zip ties. This guy is now a Baja Legend and should is be GIVEN a bike by KTM. Read the comments on his finish video. Epic.2 days, 1 hour and 5 minutes. The race this year was 1311 miles.
