After a short 2.5-hour ride from Aguascalientes, we arrived in Guadalajara in the early afternoon. We stayed at the Expo Inn, which cost us 530 pesos (~37 CAD) for what was one of the cleanest rooms we have had so far. The room had all the amenities we could hope for, WiFi that was good […]
After two days in Durango, we headed towards Aguascalientes on Thursday morning. The ride was a bit longer than usual at 4.5 hours and our arrival into the city was a rainy one. We stayed at the Hotel Real Plaza, which cost us 720 pesos (~50 CAD) for a room on the 10th floor. Another […]
Our ride from Hidalgo del Parral to Durango was close to five hours long. We left in the morning at our usual time, had a quick lunch break in the middle, and then arrived at our destination in the afternoon. We stayed at a Best Western PLUS again, but much cheaper than Creel at 840 […]
We left Guachochi a bit earlier than our usual 9:30 AM because the bike being parked right outside our room made loading everything a total breeze. We stopped at an Oxxo for a quick breakfast and then were on our way to Hidalgo del Parral – our first city since Hermosillo. The trip was […]
We left Creel after breakfast on Sunday morning and rode for about four hours before we got to Guachochi. The day was beautiful – sunny without being too hot – so the ride was pleasant. The place itself reminded us quite a bit of Yécora upon initial impression, but somehow a bit better. I guess […]
We left for the Barrancas del Cobre (Copper Canyon) after breakfast and arrived at the location in about an hour. We paid 20 pesos (~1.45 CAD) per person for the initial entry and then took a dirt road to where we could ride the gondola. There was some rain along the way so, unsurprisingly, the road […]
We had planned to visit the Copper Canyon on our first morning in Creel; however, after seeing rain in the forecast, we decided to post-pone the trip to the following day. Instead, after breakfast, we decided to explore Creel since it seemed like a charming little town. Perhaps this is due to the fact that […]

We were up bright and early on Wednesday morning. After cold showers (no hot water for the morning) and some coffee at a nearby Oxxo (Mexican convenience store chain, similar to 7-11 in North America), we were on the road at around 8:30 AM. The drive from Yécora to Basaseachi was incredible. The weather was finally […]
We left Hermosillo on Wednesday morning after breakfast and headed towards Yécora – a small town that falls between Hermosillo and Creel. We chose to stop here for the night because we planned to visit the Basaseachic Falls and didn’t want a long day of riding all the way to Creel, where we planned to stay to […]
