Same Boat Mate
Yup...I leave in 3 weeks (Sept 23), flying my bike and myself to Ciudad where I'll be heading back North via Baja to the US border then all the way South to Ushuaia.
Me mum and grandmum are freaking out...I haven't worried 'bout anything myself.
My stepmother is from Ciudad and has assured me it is a drug related issue and will have no effect on us. The border area is the problem but clear of that you are safe...safer than most US areas at the least.
The fact that migrants from Ecuador, Brasil... were mass murdered when refused to work is rather worrysome however again, over-exageration by the press is likely a large factor.
Ride Safe and See You Out There
Cheers mates
