No snow here ...
Although there is Alpine White in the scenery!
Had beautiful 'top down' weather in AZ the past week or two, with recent temps as much as 15-degrees (F) warmer than average. So over the weekend I pulled the M3 out of the garage and headed out from Phoenix toward Tortilla Flat, along the Apache Trail. This stretch of road -- familiar to any enthusiast or rider in the Valley -- runs along the Salt River, including Canyon Lake and Apache Lake. It used to be a great road to drive/ride, but now sucks due to the pavement being scored to slow people down; too many asshats have ruined it for the rest of us. Still very scenic though, so makes for a nice leisurely drive at least.

This was this morning. Still left the house in shorts and a tee shirt, but *almost* put on a hoody. It'll get up to around 80F today for a high. |

I think in our 5 years in England, the London area only saw temps of 25C or above maybe five or six days *total*. In Phoenix, it won't even get *down* to 25C from June to Oct ... with overnight lows more like 30C during the Summer.

A couple thoughts. I'm not a fan of black wheels even though I own multiple sets of ARC-8 anthracite wheels, but black wheels rock an alpine white car. Car looks sharp. As for the weather, I'm not a fan of the desert but after multiple months of snow/cold, I could become a desert rat real fast.
