You may see the majestic Sierra Madre mountains in the distance. You may hear a donkey “hee-hawing” ! You may taste the local cuisine in a local taco stand. And you may touch a local flower growing wild in a field. You will be riding on a relatively quiet rural country road on good pavement.
After riding in the Banderas Bay area, many of our clients agree that riding here is not only scenic but also safe. That said we should still be aware of our surroundings. As cyclists we do not have a steel frame around us for protection; therefore, we have to be vigilant. We must be watchful for not only vehicles but also debris and obstacles on the road. Here in Puerto Vallarta the dreaded tope is one such obstacle. Topes, or speed bumps in English, are a common speed reduction method here in Mexico. Not all topes are created equal. They vary in size and shape and are not always marked, so keep a keen eye. It’s hard to enjoy the ride if you are worried about being in harm’s way. We only take you where we feel safe to ride.
