Hi there Phx area riders,
My husband and I will be visiting family and friends during the 3d week in April. We are planning on bringing our bikes, but need some help figuring out where to ride. We are former Tempeans (is that a word?) and cannot really fathom any type of decent riding in the area where we used to live (McClintock s/o Elliot). We are not sure where we will be staying, but we are willing to drive to get in 2-3 good rides while we are there. I know there must be some good riding up in N. Scottsdale, Cave Creek, Carefree, but I am not as familiar with that area. What we don't want is riding in 4 lane traffic with a light every mile. Right now we ride in an area that is pretty much a cycling mecca for the greater Boston area and we are spoiled! I'd like to see some nice desert scenery, if there's any left in the Valley....
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Robyn
