I've been lurking here for awhile now, and finally decided to join. And post.

NW of Phoenix as in Mesa, or as in Sho Low? Either way, I'll be sure to say Hi for you .

Thanks for the warm welcome all.

And there was a phoenix in Harry Potter so if you saw that it might also count.

Re: Newbie First Post

A. Is this Phoenix a woman in the movie?

B. Is she hot?

If either of the above answers are no, I'm suddenly not interested.

Phoenix is the best place I've lived so far. I moved from upstate NY a few years ago to get away from the cold, snowy winters and humid, cloudy summers. I'd rather have 120 degrees vs. -20 degrees any day!

Well ... there you go. I guess being able to ride year round has its perks. Although I would have to imagine that riding in 120 weather would be F-ing brutal.

My mom who lives in the Phx area is a big bicycle nut. She says it's just one of things you get used to. You ride early in the morning or later in the evenings when it cools down.
But yea, imagine full leathers, a helmet, and 120 degree dry heat. That would be rough.
