Waking up every morning to the smell of coffee, surrounded by lush vegetation, animals, birds and millions of singing insects all playing the daily soundtrack. Knowing that new and uncharted trails lay just at your doorstep, is what keeps spirits high and full of life! Few places on earth make you feel completely detached from civilization like this. A lovely time capsule floating somewhere in the 60's where no wifi nor cell phones have a place.
This time the
Bike Logistics team (Diego Sada, Mau de Avila and Samuel Zorrilla) embraced a new adventure, an epic journey that shaped their Lifestyle to a completely unexpected level, a place with unique landscapes in the middle of nowhere. The trip would start in Mexico city's international airport with its next destination: Huatulco, a small town in Mexico's southern coast in the state of Oaxaca, known for its ideal surfing and other adventure activities, and would lead up to the high jungle to this magic place...
Yuviaga.
WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE...

Anyways, cool trip, I'd love to go someday
But it's ok, I don't expect you being able to point Oaxaca in a map, let alone understanding all of the above.
But really, I don't actually think your business is exploitative, or that it's your responsibility to contribute to their economic growth. I was just making fun of the cliché.
Instead, you have built a point by point case of why you are textbook troll. Mau12 outdoes himself by gracefully extending an invitation for you to check out the area and his operation. I would actually worry about you taking him up on his offer and confirming stereotypes of smug American pseudo elitism but I'd imagine you are much more comfortable casually throwing stones and covering your ass with cowardly non-committal responses than go and face the music.
I see what you did there!
We'll do all the logistics for you!

The best riding season in Mexico is around the corner!
Oh wait, there isn't one........yet
Mexico has a bit of a bad image at the moment, good to see these pictures.Looks awesome
So as a foreigner you will be fine.
It's a game of risk vs reward; is the reward really worth it? Over the alps or BC?
@dobbs59, i get your point, but i dont necesarily agree with you, your supposed question is little shallow in my perspective. I guess what we can agree upon is that you are not as adventurous as the guys that wrote the article. I haven't been to BC but I've been to the Alps and let me tell you that I will pick southern Mexico over the Alps any time. No disrespect to the alps they are beautiful, it is just that my experience feels bigger in southern mexico, i feel like learning new things every time.
look at it this way, northern mexico and southern mexico is way more different than the difference between GB and whatever part of the country in the alps you would be visiting. Now imagine the difference between GB and southern Mexico which is further miles apart from each other, your mind will be further expanded i can guarantee it.
incidence of murders in Oaxaca = 34.1 (according to the link above); in paris = 1.2 ; in USA = 4
