El Solitario - Only Outlaws Will Be Free

The secret of a genius is to carry the spirit
of the child into old age, which means never
losing your enthusiasm.

– ONLY DEAD FISH GO WITH THE FLOW –

“El Solitario is a Gesamtkunstwerk – a total work of art, in which the riders, their gear, their machines, their backup, the photography, and the film made of their adventures, are shaped to one vision.”

After Thanksgiving, we load our bikes and become desert wolves. Metaphorically (for now) in the form of LA-Barstow-to-Vegas [LAB2V] desert ride in the desert between the cities of Los Angeles and Las Vegas.As for the ride itself: Delightful. But the task is never without its challenges.
Coinciding with our 14th anniversary, we were asked by some avid observers to present ourselves and define where we are going. Instead of manufacturing a long boring document we wrote this one minute El Solitario manifesto and edited some footage to illustrate our DNA and our destiny.
