Default Mexico ride?

Has anyone ever toured through Mexico at all? Beng from the frozen tundra of northern Canada, I'm thinking this would be a great way to spend a winter. Has anyone ever had any issues with cossing the border, insurance or customs officials when riding across into Mexico?

Talking Living on the edge, eh?

You enter with 2 kidneys and leave with 1. If you leave at all. I wouldn't fly over it in a plane much less ride a motorcycle through there. I'd run through the house blind folded with sharp knives if I wanted to live on the edge before traveling THERE. Why Mexico?

Just askin....... Maybe someone can actually answer your question.

Chit Darren, you beat me to the punch on this one. I think I would rather take my chances wearing a homemade SOA rocker on my vest over a SOA Tee shirt at a 1% meeting.

The entire northern part of Mexico is a war zone-this war has bred hundreds of killers who like to kill for the fun of it. My dad lives in Chihuahua, I won't even go visit. It's a shame 'cuz it used to be a pretty cool part of the world.

I ask for some simple information, and I get moronic statements from people that have never left the county. If you have no informationthen run along and play. Don't post your drivel. Supprised you didn't tell me to buy a manual......sheeesh, children today

I am serious-Northern Mexico is not a "safe" place.

I'm REALLY hoping this fella goes after reading his reply to simple humor. No sense of humor whatsoever!! I hope he ends up on the grocery store shelves looking at the outside world through a glass jar filled with formaldehyde.

I'm getting some good use out of the IGNORE function with these arrogant members this winter.

Ok, carry on.
