    Your right to a point..But I can't stand Florida with the bugs, humidity, and in all due respect, just do not want to live there...Arizona or New Mexico, and maybe, Southern Utah would be my choices if I ever move....otherwise at 75 years old and been in Michigan since 1963, I probably will just live with the weather as we have family and friends here and my wife seems to be okay with that for now...Regards...

    Rode last week it was 27 degrees, this morning it was 15 and now the high for the day is 30.

    I'm in North Carolina not Michigan!!!! I'm not a happy camper at this point. Keep the damn jet stream up where it belongs!

    Cool Sub Zero!

    Well sub zero most nights here now and not much better during the day. Roads have been salted a few times so my season is definitely over. Just need one good day so I can get my bike polished and looking nice for her winter sleep.

    I can't imagine riding in FL from May through the end of September, except in the evening.

    The oppressive heat and humidity combo would make riding with ATGATT quite unpleasant.

    I'm basing that on the very few days we get with the temps in the low to mid 30 C range (88F-95F) with 50% RH. I know FL's RH can typically reach 80-90% along with 90+ F temps..

    No snow here in northern Italy. Maybe December January?
