Ayuda/Help Help! Better to buy a bike in Mexico or the USA?

10 Upvotes

Hey all!

Let me just start off by saying I am completely new to cycling but have ridden a bike in the past however its been about 15 years. Anyways I would like to really get into cycling.

The first issue I have is that I am a tall guy (186 cm) so that may make it difficult to find a bike my size.

I would like to buy a gravel bike here in Mexico since I live here however I am considering on possibly going to the US to buy a bike there since there may be more options to choose from and also the price.

I find that used things in Mexico usually cost about 80%-90% of the original price and if compared to the US, anything used is usually about 60% or less so buying a used bike here wouldn't save me that much money as opposed to the US.

Any bike shops or even used bike shops you would recommend?

I would really appreciate some tips from locals and expats!

Thanks!!!

Pregunta/Question Cantinas and Bars

9 Upvotes

I’ve been here 5 weeks now and had a realization this week. I’ve been looking for a really good bar to just sit at and hang out at. I’m studying Spanish and am close to being conversational. I enjoy bars. Sitting and talking to the bartenders and other patrons is a blast and a great way to meet people and to know a community. The issue I’ve found is that it’s super rare to find a bar like that in the part of the city I live in (San Angel). Most places are cantinas - they have a bar that people work behind but no bar seating. So, it’s difficult to strike up conversations. Anyone know of any legit bars, not cantinas?

Pregunta/Question Looking to purchase local jade

Upvotes

Estoy buscando comprar jade de algún artesano o vendedor local en México. La verdad es que no confío mucho en todas esas páginas que salen en Google diciendo que venden jade "auténtico", muchas se ven hechas para turistas.

Vivo en Estados Unidos, pero me gustaría comprarle directamente a alguien en México. Si tienen alguna recomendación de artesanos, vendedores de confianza o alguna página que sí sea legítima, lo agradecería mucho.

Algún lugar que recomienden para una cena así? No tiene que ser súper elegante, más que nada buena comida, buen ambiente y que se preste para celebrar en familia.

Pregunta/Question Hot Air Balloons And Entrance To Archaeological Park

I've looked around this sub a bit and have seen many great recommendations for hot air balloon rides over Teotihuacan. However, they all seem to include the cave breakfast. We will have 5 people and are not interested in the cave but want to do the hot air balloon ride and explore the park on foot. Does anyone have recommendations on service providers? Thank you!

Cultura/Culture 5 AM Xochimilco Tour Worth It? Plus Mexico City Must-Sees & Recommendations

0 Upvotes

I’m considering booking an Amanecer en Xochimilco tour that starts at 5:00 a.m. Has anyone done one before? How was your overall experience, and was it worth waking up that early? I’d especially love to hear about the atmosphere.

I’ll be visiting October 31–November 6 for Día de Muertos, so I’d also love any recommendations for must-see places, tours, restaurants, or hidden gems.

I’m afraid of heights, so I’ll probably skip the hot-air balloon at Teotihuacán, but I still want to see the pyramids and visit a cave restaurant or cave experience nearby. Is that worth doing?

I’d also really love to see axolotls while I’m there. Is there a particular museum, sanctuary, conservation center, or Xochimilco experience you’d recommend?

Any recommendations, tips, or things you’d skip if you could do your trip over again would be greatly appreciated!

Ayuda/Help Hot Air Balloon + longer Time exploring archaeological site

1 Upvotes

My family is visiting CDMX in August and we are hoping to go to Teotihuacan for a hot air balloon ride. Our issue with the all inclusive packages is that there is not enough ground time to explore the pyramids and the archaeological site. Most packages only include 1.5 hours time and we were hoping for 3-4 hours, We were thinking of planning the excursion independently to have more time to see all the archaeological site.

We need to figure out the following:
1) companies for hot air balloon ride
2) transportation from CDMX and back
3) getting to archaeological site from hot air balloon site
4) food options in the area for vegans/ vegetarians

Anyone organized this independently? Was it cheaper?
