I hate the near 100 degree July & Augusts here in Georgia, but reading about all these 'last rides' of the year reminds me that warmer in the winter (and no road salt) compensates for the extra summer heat a lot. Riding the motorcycle is just the opposite for me, I rarely ride in the heat of the summer, and I never winterize the bike as I ride it year round, same as my cars.
