Hey there! Two random questions, specially for locals such as Norma that may know better . 1) Last year I was there I looked everywhere to rent a bike to go to Playa del Carmen where my cousin lives. I drive a bike in my city and also have the highest ranked license, so any cc would be fine. But the thing is that all through Cancun, the only bikes I could find where those yellow scooters (125 cc) that weren't meant for long travels (anyway, I still went with one of those to PdC but it was awful!!!) and on the opposite corner, the Harley Davidson that required a 2K deposit before renting, and my credit card was over, so couldn't do it. So... is there any bike rental in Cancun where they would rent "regular" bikes, like 250 cc, 400 cc, 600 cc, whatever, besides the ultra expensive Harleys? 2) This is simpler. Is there a reliable, free (or by buying some drinks or something) WiFi hot spot in CUN? The Oasis where I stayed before charged 20 USD for 24 hs that would expire in 5 days or so... a really complicated charging system. That plus the fact that it pretty much never worked fine. Thanks
about the bikes im not sure but i could look around tomorrow and let you know. as for the WiFi, your best bet is Starbucks... or Hooters at La Isla
Thanks mormis! Do you know if there is a Starbucks close to the top part of the 7 in Cancun? Near Viva Beach hotel specifically? Gracias normita!
Dan, I rented a HD last year and went to Playa. I totally recomend it. I'm planning en renting a Harley again. I think there's a pic of the bike in my album (Softail Heritage)
Plaza Caracol is the one that has a fountain in the entrance and that is really classy, right? If I don't remember wrong, it would be quite far from Be Live Viva Beach... don't you think? It's even far from the clubs zone. Or maybe I'm mistaking it with another! LOL
whatever bunch of stores they put together in Cancun they call it Plaza and they have the weirdest names, you are prolly talking about plaza kukulkan, which is close to plaza la isla and no, right across the street from Riu palace theres plaza caracol, check it out
Where did you rent it? How much of a deposit did you have to leave and how much was for the bike? Ehmm... you are right, I was mixing them up :baby2:. Is Riu close to Viva Beach (where I'm staying)?
there's the link ..:: Bikers Cancun, Renta de Motos Harley Davidson y Tours ::.. as for the prices, check it here: ..:: Bikers Cancun, Renta de Motos Harley Davidson y Tours ::..
Thanks for the link! That's the store where I went askin around... USD 2000.00 of deposit!!!! :bash: :aktion070: :doh: That's really scary... I mean, some drunk car passes by, touches you and BAM, you've lost 2 grands! Weren't you scared when you made the deposit? Did you have any problem retrieving it? What I'm looking for is something not as huge as a HD, but as I said before, some Honda or Yamaha; the usual ones the people drives around. I'm hoping Normita can get me some contacts! :wink3:
