Yeah you might not want to venture around alone. Search for a recreational group. As mentioned before, the areas bordering Texas are a war zone with what seems like daily killings, I would recommend flying into Guanajuato.
Luckily, I did my travels across Mexico back in early 07' before things heated up. Kroozer: I passed through Tepic as well, nice area.
