Tucson "Winter" Ride

A video and a few pics from a recent "winter" ride here in Tucson. East out Old Spanish Trail. South through Vail to Sahuarita Rd. West to Mission Road. North through the saguaros, past San Xavier Mission and Old Tucson, and back in through Picture Rocks.

Thanks for posting the video. It sure brought back some memories. I rode all thru that area in 78-82. The canyon roads and desert look the same, as does the Mission. I had a Honda back then and my buddy Tony used to have a Triumph. We laid down a bit of rubber on the roads around Tucson back then. I also used to enjoy the ride up Mount Lemmon to the lift too. Beautiful area!

Thanks for sharing the pics and video. I've never rode down there, but have been in that area and to the mission in a cage. Beautiful area!

That looks like a blast.

There is no way for me to express how jealous I am that you are riding in Arizona weather lol It's supposed to be like 27 for my ride home from work tonight.
