Default Question - Tucson area riders

We are retired and our son has moved to the Tucson area. We live in WNY and are hoping to be invited to visit/stay with him Jan, Feb or Mar or all 3 months. Are there enough good riding weather days during those months to make it worth while to bring a bike out there? We don't have a trailer, but would think about buying one if there would be 2-3 days a week that were good to ride. 65 degrees would be good for us. Does the area have high winds during the winter months? Looking for a riders point of view.

Jan., Feb., and Mar. are for the most part the best time to ride in my opinion. The mornings can be in the 30s and afternoons are usually in the 50 to 70 range. This past Jan. I actually went riding a few days in short sleeves. Wind and rain are only rarely a problem. There is a good bunch of folks to ride with here also. Hope this helps.
