I try to ride throughout, but I usually give up in january and wait til it warms up. As long as the roads aren't shit, I try to take my christmas eve jaunt to the gap.

I ride each bike at least once a week year round

RARELY does it get below freezing for more than 5 days in a row

We generally ride year round...but it is suppose to be a very wet year so we will see about this year.

The mornings get really cold but once we get passed the ocean it warms up a bit.

theyre just saying rain here, would be funny if NC got snow before NY did. I just hope it stays warm enough here so they dont sand/salt the frekin roads.

My season is done now and the bike is in storage. Last 2 track days were this past weekend.

Bike will emerge from hibernation in April.
