You can get very far south in four days if you ride like a
maniac but that would not be very smart if your total time available is only four days. You would never get back to the border within that time , would you ?
Tampico is a good enough destination and it is a good day of riding south from the Matamoros border . Any other border crossing will be farther west AND farther north . You do need to take the time to see some of that city and remember NO RIDING THE HIGHWAYS AFTER DARK , so that city will be the first overnight .
Where have you been before in Mexico ? ... So .... go somewhere different .
From Tampico you can go west on Mex 70 to CD VALLES and begin travelling north again for 3 days to get back to Texas at Laredo or at Piedras Negras
Or you could follow 70 west all the way to San Luis Potosí and head north on Mex 57, but that would really add a lot of km and some very steady riding .
Believe me there is plenty entertainment along the way .
Don't be greedy and try to cover thousands of km .
It's about quality of travel not just covering a lot of distance .
