That's just Mexico city. I've never been to Ixtapa, but there's lots of bikes running all over Baja California in Mexico.

I'll bet if you want one, it'd be no problem to own a sportbike there.

Re: Mexico here we come......

ITS A REAL SMALL TOWN, ACTUALLY ITS 2 TOWNS THATS WHY ITS CALLED "IXTAPA-ZIHUATANEJO". IXTAPA IS THE TOURIST SIDE WITH THE HOTELS MARINAS AND NIGHT CLUBS, ZIHUATANEJO OR ZIHUA AS THE LOCALS CALL IT IS THE SMALL TYPICAL MEXICAN TOWN. iTS A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE IF YOU LIKE SMALL TOWNS. THE OCEAN IS GREAT, YOU CAN SWIM YEAR ROUND ( SURFING IS GREAT ). JUST DONT SWIM IN THE MARINA, THERE ARE CROCS IN T HE WATER.... http://www.ravencruise.com/images/Co...a%20Ixtapa.jpg
AND IF YOU GET TIRES OF THE SMALL TOWN FEEL YOU CAN ALWAYS DRIVE TO ACAPULCO ITS 3 HOURS AWAY....OH AND A BIKE IS PERFECT DOWN THERE

We made it We are in Ixtapa, the place is gorgeous, lots of big boats here We also got a quick look at ZIHUATANEJO today, looks nice too! The weather is perfect!!! Around 85. The marina is 1 minute away from our place and the beach maybe 2 if we take our time. I think we will have fun here!

I was outside sipping on an ice cold Molson Canadian today. The only difference is I was taking a break while shoveling the damn snow.

Re: Mexico here we come......

And the good news is that I'm not without a bike!!! I can use the completely stock Yamaha Mint whenever I want... actually that's all I have so far, the F-350 transmission is f&$? up.

Call me ass hat, squid I don't care, but I just came back from a ride with no helmet.... That thing is mean,but what else would you expect from a Yamaha
