| Location: | Culiacan to Barra de Navidad |
From Tepic, we were on Highway 200 to Puerto Vallarta. Maybe we missed signs, but we got dumped in the middle of the old town, with cobbled streets and lots of tourists. It all took up too much time.
Having found our way out of the maze, the coastal route then brought us its own challenges. A beautiful road if you had days to ride it, it´s twists, clinging to the edge of the coasts, uneven road surface and evil bends lowered our average speed even lower.
By that evening we hit Barra de Navidad, a lovely little coastal town and our planned stop for the day before. Mexico is turning into a mightmare. We have now lost a whole day.
The Pacific coastal route of Highway 200 could be a big mistake.
