Sounds like it might be something deep, huh? More like a ride on the scoots, through the different areas between the suburbs of the west Valley and downtown Phoenix.
Another warm day here in the Valley of the Sun; we decided to take the scoots to downtown for a late lunch. Getting ready to head out...
Heading south from the RV park, towards the Estrella Mountains, kinda in the boonies...
Crossing a bridge over a dry river-bed, no traffic...
In the foothills of the Estrella Mountains...
Road construction (one view of several we drove through)...
Plenty of new home construction, just off from this lane through the Estrella Mountain Ranch area...
Riding by what used to be called PIR (Phoenix International Raceway), and is now ISM (Ingenuity Sun Media) Raceway...
Then moving into an agricultural area...
And then: industry, warehouses, and distribution centers...
Lots of trucks! This one had the "Call to report..." number partially blacked out...
A palm tree farm - all those palm trees around here have to come from somewhere...
Like approaching downtown from further north (last time scoot cruising into downtown), you pass through an area that feels more like Mexico than the US...
And then into downtown Phoenix...
Lunch was good, and then a different way back to the West Valley. A warm day on the scoots; the highest time I saw on my dash thermometer was 91º. Yes, we were dressed for riding: boots, helmets, and mesh jackets with armor.
This may be the last of the scooting we get in before heading for home.
