I have ridden both places when you make the only choice {Arizona} ask for a map of the best places to ride when you pick up your ride. I wish I was going.

Definitely AZ. Florida has enough snow birds this time of year already!

Arizona. Make a point of getting up to the Grand Canyon.

I went to the Grand Canyon one January. It was 29 degrees with snow everywhere!

Yeah, I would say South Florida that way you will most likely have the warmest weather.

I'd say Arizona too. Better riding and less humid.

Palm Beach HD no longer rents bikes. Not sure about Treasure Coast but I don't think they do. Chesters (now called Alligator Alley) does rent bikes but be careful they are 30 miles west of Ft Lauderdale, though I do believe they pick up from FLL if you fly in.
