Super Advanced Planning for Bike Tour To B!B!15 in Guadalajara
Hey ya'll,
During B!B!14 I had regrets of not biking to Columbus. I started saying that no mater where 2015's conference was I was going to bike (at least some of the way) there. What looks to be the most feasible to me is flying into Mexico City and biking the 350 miles (563 km) to Guadalajara. That might be around 5-7 days.
Anyways I wanted to know if other people have interest in touring to Guadalajara, know of any good routes though that part of Mexico, or can help me plan the best trip I can? I would love to be part of a good sized group because to me biking is a social activity.
I know it's early, and we don't even know when it's going to happen, but I just want to start thinking about this now, so next year I'm not planning a trip last minute.

Very interested in touring, pending time of year!

Riding from Mexico City is very feasible, it can be done in around 5 days, the route is pretty and i'm sure plenty of people from The City will be riding to Guadalajara as well. You should drop a line to Bicitekas, they're the largest group of riders there and can surely tell you who'd be interested in riding here. Jim Mayerstein can also hook you up. They probably don't know yet though, we haven't even broken the news to them :)
We are thinking about a post-event tour to a nice beach to camp, since we are just 200km away from the coast, this is all to be seen, we haven't even chosen a date yet, but bring your swimming suit :)
