Biography

In the punishing world of SCORE desert racing, few achievements carry the weight of conquering the legendary Baja 1000, and Bernardo Segura etched his name into off-road racing history by claiming the Pro Moto 40 class championship at the 2020 SCORE Baja 1000. This victory came during one of the most challenging years in SCORE's storied history, when the 53rd edition of the world's toughest off-road race presented an 898.40-mile loop course that veteran racers called one of the most technical and demanding in recent memory.

Segura's triumph in the Pro Moto 40 class demonstrated the skill and endurance required to master Baja's unforgiving terrain on two wheels. The 2020 race proved especially grueling, with COVID-19 protocols adding unprecedented challenges to an already brutal competition. Despite racing without the traditional fan support and pre-race celebrations that define the Baja 1000 experience, Segura maintained focus and determination throughout the peninsula's treacherous course.

His championship victory places him among an elite group of motorcyclists who have conquered the Baja 1000, joining the ranks of legends who understand that surviving nearly 900 miles of desert terrain requires equal parts preparation, skill, and unwavering mental fortitude.
