heading to phoenix in the morning to ride around in the 75 degrees. I'm sure ill end up in cave creek with a drink in my hand by 8pm and a smile on my face since I havent ridden for too damn long.

Last year we rode to tucson and checked out the missle silos and air museum and that was a blast.

Question for anyone familar with the area: Whats a good round trip ride there out of phoenix? I don't want freeways and I want a long open road as much as possible. Something that ends in a bar or has some cool history to it. Mining towns are fine. Any good ideas for a good round trip on short days? I'm thinking jerome might work.

 

Any ride there would be nice, especially this time of year, as long as you don't ride with or run into twiggy. That would just make me poke my eyes out. The horror! Cave Creek, home of the infamous Sonny Barger and the Cave Creek chapter of the HA.

 

Mr Zip, check out the southwest portion of the forums and you'll get an idea of where we ride in the winter (relative to summer). Everyone is welcome to join us, they just got to buy the first round .

 

The Bee Line hwy seems like a nice ride, then maybe out to Canyon Lake, lots of twisty's. I live out there for 3 yrs (without a bike) I would love to do some riding out there.

 

take hwy 74 out of cave creek to wickenburg and head up to flag on hwy 89.

ranked a top 10 motorcycle road in the united states

 

89A is a great road, but you will run into colder temperatures this time of year, especially near Flagstaff.

Through Canyon Lake to Tortilla Flat is a good ride.

 

hah, i forgot, sitting here in cali and it's 80 degrees all around, moved from phx 6 months ago, tortilla flats is a great run eh
