I am doing about 15,000 miles annually. December, January, February I get out maybe once or twice - had a lot of snow and some very frigid temps this past Winter. I ride a lot in the Spring and Fall - I prefer riding in cooler weather. Today, it was 97 degrees and very humid - heat index was 105. I avoid riding when it is that hot. During the hot spells, I'll get out in the early morning for a 30 mile ride and come home before it gets too hot. If it cools off some in the early evening, I might go out again for a while - but in July & August, the heat often doesn't subside until after midnight. September through November are my favorite riding months. I have no problem riding when it is in the 30's and 40's with my heated vest & gloves. It's nice. No bugs - no Harleys...
