Best riding is go north to Wickenburg, out through Congress and up to Prescott, on to Jerome, around to Sedona, Oak Creek Canyon and back. Another is anywhere in the White Mountains, up through Payson, Show Low, Greer. The Coronado Trail.
There are some beautiful riding in the eastern part of the state.
As far as your tire I go to the Wheel Shop, it's on McDowell and about 16th st. they do good work and carry the Dunlop American Elite that I like as well as all kinds of brands.

How are you liking the city so far? I liked Phoenix the time I spent there.

Default Welcome The the great state of Arizona!

Wow you got here just before summer sets in!

What part of Arizona do you live? Are you interested in short day rides or longer rides. There are plenty of great places in the state as well as locally near metro phoenix.

I guess I really meant to ask in what part of the metro Phoenix area you are?

There are several dealers and many good independent shops depending on what's close to you.

I'm off of the 51 and bell. I need a tire before it for a ride. Local or long distance is good for me. Thanks, Vinnie

Probably not when it's 110 degrees out, lol. The nice ride starts at Congress, Yarnell, Prescott etc. You'd enjoy the desert more in the cold weather. When its down to like 70 or 80.
