Newsflash: Why Phoenix is actually COOL.

[desert_max]

Riding season. For many, I'm guessing the riding currently consists of memories, magazines and parts catalogs. I can relate. I lived in New England (MA) for years and, boy, are those guys getting hammered this winter.

Skip diagonally across the continent to southern Arizona and you'd find that, lately, we've been having a string of 80F+ temperatures - in early February. Ten to fifteen degrees above normal even for us.

And, yes, we're taking advantage of it. A riding buddy and I headed east on Saturday 2/7 and had a nice run to an old stage stop. Had a burger and a beer and doubled back. Nice run. Nice weather.

Contrary to prevailing opinion, Phoenix is COOL.

DISTANT memories for me too. But it seems like only YESTERDAY I was flying ALONG ON MY 09 on a 175 mile trek across parts of my favorite MO 90, MO 112, MO 86, AR 62 AR 23 highways - oh, wait...........IT WAS YESTERDAY. :biglaugh:

I spent Saturday (high of 75ish) putting new rubber under the front of my Honda Rune, and doing it's annual brake fluid change outs, etc... Between that, and cleaning it, my car, and my truck, I ran out of daylight before I knew what hit me, but Sunday was between me and the 09!!! :rocket bike:
