Here are some photos of a trip I took this morning from 6:30 to 9:00 that covered about 41 miles. I did not start the motor up for the first 7 miles as I was with a bike riding buddy. At that time I took off to try a loop I had done for years as a bike racer.
I live at about 1200 feet elevation and the first 12 miles may rise to 1300 feet. Then for the next 6 miles it climbs pretty steady to 2115, never very steep but I pedaled most of that to keep rpm up. Later there would be rolling terrain with intermittent climbs and one 1/2 mile steep climb, before the ride gradually descending on home.
These photos give a sampling of the beauty that I love in my area. I have been a lot of fine places in California, Colorado, Utah, West Virginia, France, Germany and Brazil but none pleases me more than this area just out side of my home. You all probably have similar thoughts of your favorite riding areas.
I am very pleased with my bike and motor and drive system. They all work well together and each part seems to do it's job well. I max out at 23 or 24 miles per hour as a rule. Since Arizona gives us to 20 mph as legal this is ok for me.
