    TIM: It's just your timing is off a bit That's our winter out here Sorry to hear that. Maybe this will make you feel better. Today after coffee and a quick snack. Were going with another couple to MEL&S Diner. Remember TV Show Alice ? Were heading out on our Trikes after a stop at Arrowhead HD. Then off to have lunch at Mel's. temps today in the low 80's Sunny for the next 10 days. You think you feel bad. What about all the people that were out here for the Super Bowl ?

    It was raining for 3 days just before the game.

    It's NOT all that bad at that time of the yr out here.

    Last year was Fantastic for riding around Christmas..

    Hey TBEAR, Anything is better then where you are now ..oops Sorry . In the Phoenix area is good 80% of the time. July, & Aug can be a little HOT at that time of the year. But your only about an hour away from cooler riding weather if you ride north. Their are guys that ride all year out here and don't seem to mind it at all. During shut down at G.M. my wife and I rode out here in July. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Can I ask WHY you want to know ? 82 and SUNNY for the next week out here now.

    Default Livin and lovin in Surprise

    I moved to Surprise in Sept of 18 from Southern California. It was the best move I ever made. We love it here, the weather is great for riding and I work from home so the summer heat is not an issue for me. if it gets to hot I can always take my laptop and go sit in the pool and work. I was surprised that it didn't seem that bad to ride during the summer days as I thought it would be. I even wear a full face helmet and thought it would be too hot but it is surprisingly comfortable. I just bought a 2020 trike and am getting used to it and looking forward to meeting other trike riders out here and finding fun places to ride.

    I am up north of you in Bagdad. Great riding around here. Check out the DK Custom Ride Report from last fall in Trike Travel. You should come up for a ride sometime.

    Today I am getting ready to bring my bike to Flagstaff. It has been at my sons house in Peoria for the winter. I have a lot of rides planned for northern AZ and just in time for the COVID restrictions to be lessened.

    Payson, AZ is our home now.

    Moved down here from NoDak 1 1/2 years ago as the winters were tearing me up from all of my surgeries. Here we get the 4 seasons but yet it is super nice in the winter. A little snow and gone in a day or 3. Perfect!
