DMV: Motorcycle Journey Across Mexico 

Joe this is what I am talking about. Thank you for being the inspiration for me.

Not sure how I missed this one a few years back. It’s a classic Joe production!

Holy crap, dude! At 5:22 you pass through a suburb of Mexico City called "Ciudad Satélite" (Satellite City). Of _all_ the places you could've chosen to show, you showed those "Towers of Satélite" in northern Mexico City near the area where I grew up (those "towers" are actually rainwater reservoirs)! They're somewhat famous among Mexico City residents, but not to the point that all people from Mexico City have seen them -- in fact, I would say that only around a third of people that have lived in Mexico City have visited that place, as there's not really much to do there unless you live nearby. I'm flipping out about this because of the ten million things you can see when you travel to Mexico City you chose to show that particular spot, which would be the Mexico City equivalent of saying that you went through some back road that took you through a tiny, middle-of-nowhere rural town in the US where one of your viewers happens to be from. Man, probably not even travel vloggers that have visited Mexico City have taken footage of those towers. I'm blown away! Ciudad Satélite is a suburb that was built from the 1960s through the 1980s to support a growing population of Mexico City residents that wanted a nicer, bigger house at an affordable price, compared to Mexico City itself -- and then grew over the years until making itself one of the main residential areas in northwestern-metropolitan area Mexico City for middle- to upper-income residents. People would then commute through the "Periférico Boulevard Miguel Ávila Camacho" road, which you took all the way from south to north of the city (it kinda does a loop). Those towers were designed by a famous Mexican Modernist architect called Luis Barragán (and Mexican sculptor Mathias Goeritz), and represented the "modern" future that Ciudad Satélite was advertised as in the second half of the 20th century. You probably saw that there's an overhead road on top of Periférico, which people refer to as "segundo piso" (second floor) -- well, maybe you also noticed that it goes back to road level when it goes through the towers, as Satélite residents didn't want their scupltures interrupted by an ugly elevated highway. Safe travels. Hope you had a great time in Mexico, and that you visit again soon! Cheers from Houston, TX!

✌

Great video Joe, 👍🏽came from Scotty... just subbed. Wondered where you had gone?.. I’ve got some catching up to do.

Hey i love the videos! Are there any police speed traps on highways in Mexico? Im planning a trip myself 👉👈

Hello Joe, good video, I would like you to help me, what insurance did you take to protect you from any accident or theft since I am from Houston and I want to go to Mexico on my motorcycle like you, thank you

I can't wait to go to Mexico I'm looking for an old Honda myself. I don't want to take my Harley

You need to do a video on cheap places to stay and safe food to eat

What bike you got there ? . Great video.

How long did you live in Mazatlan?

How safe is Mexico? I am planning a motorcycle trip from US to Patagonia next year. Should I be concerned. Heard lots of Horror stories about Mexico and South America. Most are trying to stop me to do the trip. Any help would be appreciated. Thank in advance.

Hi ! I plan to do the trip from canada to Playa del Carmen. Is there some city to absolutely avoid? Mabee u can help me ! Thanks

So my question ... I am interested in riding from Texas to Patagonia -- through Mexico alone. I have experience riding around the world -- Miami to Thailand and Cartagena to Ushuaia -- but both times with a small group. It also looks like you stay on pavement -- how safe is it to ride alone for mid aged man?

How do you keep from getting stomach issues and diarrhea?

What year and time period did you film this and did you feel safe from a safety standpoint thank you enjoyed the video found you from Scotty's scooter tramp keep the dirty side down and the clean side up brother

Also, did you travel with a Carnet?

Dig the way you're allowed to park inside the hotels. Is this a common practice?

i am planning a journey to the south however one thing can’t come around, Cartel,,,how not to disrespect,,,,,,,,?
