bike rental or buying a bike plus other questions...

Bi-Zihuanas rents mountain bikes in Ixtapa.

There is a guy downtown that rents scooters but he wants way too much money for scooters that are barely still functional. You can rent a car for less. He's on Hermenegildo Galeana. He is also kinda' surly.

Be careful renting cars. I only rented one once. I showed the guy the letter guaranteeing insurance from my credit card company -- in Spanish! -- and he finally agreed to waive the insurance fee. He demanded a $500 hold on my credit card which I agreed to. Sure enough, he sent the hold through as a transaction. I called him and he denied ever agreeing to our agreement. The credit card company removed the transaction. This was Green Motors, as I recall the name.

The bus ride from Zihuatanejo to Huatulco appeared brutal. From Huatulco, I flew to Mexico City, spent a day in the Zócalo, and then flew to Zihuatanejo.

Rob would know if the busses are running again from Zihuatanejo to Acapulco. It's about 4 hours.

Have fun!
