The college basketball heroics of the NCAA Final Four won't be the only action in metro Phoenix this weekend. Over at WestWorld of Scottsdale, an estimated 70,000-plus motorheads will gather for Arizona Bike Week, the largest motorcycle rally in the Southwest.

The five-day event runs from Wednesday to Sunday, April 3 to 7, and will celebrate motorcycles and biker culture with a vendor village, group rides, attractions, stunt shows and other activities.
