Bueller? Bueller? ...anyone Bueller? It's amazing that a state that gets well over 300 days of beautiful warm/hot sunshine a year with minimal rain fall, that there aren't any AZ X'rs posting daily :shock: NOT EVEN ONE AZ POST besides this one coming from very cold CHICAGO. C'mon folks, there's gotta be a ton of AZ resident VTX'rs hidin out somewhere. Hope to see a post from an AZ VTX'r some time in the future. Just my .02:doorag:

Main reason I'm guessing is there is a seperate Phoenix forum and and Arizona forum that are used quite a bit hosted locally.

...Ah yes, they are alive in AZ!! just checkin'. That's cool, just figured this board was one of the more popular VTX forums around so I figured AZ would also be on board. Definately wish I was in AZ at the moment! Can't stand this midwest crap weather anymore. Ride safe Bro! :doorag:
With all the sunshine we are out riding more than posting 8)

We have one X-Riders group out here consisting of two sub-groups; the south crew from Tucson and the north crew from Phoenix. The north crew is sub-divided into the East and West crews since the Valley is so large, but we all get together and ride and party. Although we have plenty of sunshine, it gets so hot during the summer, the hot wind will melt your fingernails. I was of the same mind when I moved here and found out the riding is somewhat limited. After a few years you've ridden most of the roads and it starts to get mundane, so we party alot.

That's MR. Big Johnson to you. You guys are too funny. It's actually Pinal Co., but I feel like I'm getting "dicked" by the HOA and the local and state governments every day. As far as no one posting from AZ, we have 2 local boards that we use. Most of us do use the OA board for advice and a good laugh sometimes.

Don't quote me, but the driver seats on the R & N look the same, the only difference is in the passenger seats.

I ride my VTX regularly to Tombstone (place is like a bike show most weekends), down to the Mexican border in Douglas and through the mountains where Cochise held off the calvary for years. Moved from PA 3 years ago and never going back.:lol:
