Tampa to Vera Cruz bike and myself by sea
Anyone know how? Tampico would be OK also.
|
No ferry runs that route.
You can ride to Tampico from Tampa in 3 days. |
Thanks for the quick reply
Every year for the past 10 years I ride down to Mazatlan for bike week, this involves a lot of boring interstate riding. I am looking for a new and different route and was hoping that there was some way to go via ferry to the east coast of Mexico and then ride accross to Mazatlan.I live in Tallahassee.

Back in 12 BC, there was a ferry that ran for part of a year from Tampa to Progreso, Yucatan. But it's now something AD... :)

OK; I don't have to sail from Tampa. Are there any ferrys that sail from any gulf ports to Veracruz?
|
None I am aware of. Zip...

Shipping...
Finderskeepers, living in Tallahassee you are very lucky , the ideal spot to start a ride during nigh well any time of year. Mazatlan bike week is in April , I believe? Probably a silly suggestion on my part , but to avoid the boredom of the interstates you no doubt have already explored all the alternate routes along the different US highways and state highways in Texas to the various border crossings , verdad ? Admittedly, your choice west from Tallahassee is a bit limited until Texas unless you go north a bit first.
As Lonerider says, you can ride to Veracruz in 3 days, Tampico is only 500km south of the border .From either to Mazatlan you will have no interstates so why not avoid them in the US except to bypass big cities? |
