Dang! That's awesome. Got a sister-n-law in Scottsdale so we go visit every now and then.. Absolutely cool place.. uh no pun intended.. as "cool" may not be the best of terms. hehe.. But I can imagine the optimum riding season is reverse.. Park it in the hot hot summer to opt for some A/C in the cage, and ride in the winter where it's a bone chilling 60 degrees (or some other mild happy tempurature).

If they only had unlimited water supplies and a sure-fire way of preventing scorpions and termites, I'd be all over it.

I really do want to go out there and do some riding up in Prescott / Jerome / Sedona... There's some great little hole-in-the-wall diner/restaurants in Wickenburg too.
AZ is a great state indeed.

 

Riding here in Oklahoma is just now getting perfect. I guess there are a few good points about being here! Year round riding for the most part.

 

So Cal riding here is year round. I'm more up towards the "high desert" so it gets into the high 30 at night in the winter, but days still get up into the 50 -60, some wind in the winter though. But all in all year round riding.

 

We've already had snow here in Northern Utah. We've decided this year we're trailering our bikes to so cal and riding the coast for a few days before Thanksgiving. Boat or bikes, doesn't matter....we just deal with the fact that we live in a state that doesn't give us much time for summer play toys.

 

Even Nor-Cal is rideable year round. Bundle up when it gets too cold. Fog down in the bay area is a KILLER! Otherwise, park it and upgrade. I have been thinking about performing the 95" upgrade myself. I figure we are coming up to the right time of year to have her down.
