Mexico's rout 200 is blocked
Hi riders on the way to Mexico
I'm on my AK to TDF ride, now in mexico. this morning rode from Barra Navidad southeast on rout 200 that runs along the Pacific. Was stoped by a group of armed cevilians fighting for thir land rights. and had to turn back. when I got back to Tecoman the closest town, met the Mexican Mlitar and told them about taht, they did not care and just said they know those armed guies had already shot on an American traveler few days ago (and as a kind of "thanks for the information" the Militar held me for a search, which I took with good mood, no problemo it's an adventure) So if you want to save time and truble make a detour (not short- something like 550 km) via Colima and you can get back to rout 200 near Lazaro Cardenas.
