At the moment there's a bit of internal political unrest in Mexico but not directed at Gringos, but still it's unrest. Mexico City is the centre of this and it's also manifested in other areas at the moment. What little violence that has occurred has been towards the national political figures and some local (city/state) too. I can't speak to the cartel problem as that's extremely rare where I am.

While I don't feel uneasy living here, I'm not sure how I would feel if I were alone on a bicycle. Mexico is very large, the people very friendly and accommodating.
