Cold AZ Winter...
Pfftt... that aint cold. We just hit like -28/-30 deg celcius plus a windchill for a feels like -40deg C.
Good pics.
Yep. Winter is WAY NICE here in Arizona!
We are wintering near Apache Junction, and I mostly take my dual-sport out every morning.... BUT ..... now that we have the JK with us this year we are starting to get our feet wet, well mostly just dusty , on the fine local trails in the Superstition and Four Peaks wilderness areas. Did Hewitt Canyon to JF Ranch last week and had a great time.
I did the 401 trail to Four Peaks this week once, and only got as far as the alpine meadows below the ridge line west of Brown mountain cuz I just plain ran out of time. That is a GREAT trail for us beginners .
This morning I was on the Hewitt Canyon trail and noted a CJ that had gone into a turn a bit too fast and slid straight on the rocks into a large verde tree which hung him up. He WAS able to back it out and no major damage done.
I like to have some coffee from my bottle a couple times each week at the wash intersection down along the creek. It's beautiful, and quiet there... and just a wonderful place to be on a nice Arizona morning.
It beats the crap out of dodging ice bullets in the midwest.
I'm jus sayin...

I lived in AZ for 2 years for school if I remember correctly a few nights in January or February it got to just about freezing. I would have some slight frost on my motorcycle windshield. 2 years in AZ with just my motorcycle, dust storms, 115 degrees and a few freezing nights. But once outside phoenix it was awesome...
I just decided to sell my dual sport because I don't ride it very much here in Illinois.(600 miles in 18 mo.) Then we decided we were gonna move to Tucson this coming January. I really wish is still had it now. I guess I'll have to get a new one when I get out there.
Lucky! I'd swap spots with you in a heartbeat. Been trying to relocate to AZ from MA for over a year now.. Hate these winters and this damn state is full of nothing but wheeling nazis
