Phoenix is really HOT. Normally its about three degrees higher in terms of the days high temp.
My parents are retired in Sun City West. Phoenix reminds me traffic wise of the greater LA area in terms of rush hour. If you can live with that its great.
Great riding weather yesterday with temps above the norm for this time of year. Rode out to Collosal Cave with the wife on the back sans jacket.

Hope you enjoy your time here in Az
