So how long is your riding season?

Here in Rhode Island I ride from around the end of April when the sand and salt wash away from the April showers to just about the end of November or when the first snow hits and they lay down the sand and salt again.

Average Hi in July 83 average low in January 20

This year has been very hot. last year we had 5 days all summer long 90 or higher. June we had I think 9 or 10 alone.

We hit the upper 90's 5 times so far this summer. Heat index reached over 100 6 times

I made a bet with a guy about 18 years ago when I had my GS1150 that I would ride my bike in the next morning at 20 degrees.

I did it just to win the bet but I froze my mo foin balls off.

Pretty good for us if you don't mind riding in the lower temps. It was 65ish coming in this morning. Beautiful morning for a ride. Low fog visible in the front range, nice nip in the air, dumbbells on the road

I don't know how to add a link to a post....but here in sunny central Wa., we ride 10-11 mos per yr. avg rainfall is around 7". We had a 2 week timeframe in Jan this yr that was in the 70's. Everyone was out!
Late July/early August can get a little warm, we just ride more in the mornings.

June thru September, I only ride early in the morning here in Central Florida. It's just too hot and muggy those months, especially wearing gear. October thru May it's heaven.
