Sofia Aguirre –
I always wanted to flip the Lake! And in the peloton is much better, this lap is a must to call yourself a cyclist, they will take you while you protect yourself from the wind and there is even a competitive section, in case you thought it was all completely flat, you can try to climb this part as hard as you can. give your legs.
They always offer a supply that not only helps performance, but also delicious to the eyes and palate. The landscapes that you see from Jalisco to Michoacan distract you from the accumulated lactate and when the afternoon arrives, a good meal awaits you next to such a beautiful lake. With the lively talk where you will share all your sensations to take home and boast to everyone that you gave the complete tour of Lake Chapala in record time.
