    93 is a good road. Slows down a bit in Wickenburg and I never go past Surprise I usually get on the 303 to run either to 10 on the west side or tom17 on the east side. 93 or Grand has way too many stop lights past Surprise.

    It's a good road. Just don't speed through there.

    Wickenburg cops like traffic at speed limit. After Wickenburg, pay special attention to speed once you see your first traffic light a few miles out of Wickenburg. Lot of invitations to see the judge given out on that stretch.

    93 is a sweet ride now, mostly 4 lane, few stretches of two lane.
     
    Swordfish Thanks this.

    Nothing wrong with it but like they say. Wickenburg Bears are real "BEARS!" Be glad you aren't going up and down 89 and Yarnell Hill. It's the deadliest in AZ.

    My apathy is at an all time whatever.

    That's the future Interstate 11 corridor.
