Hello everyone. I have a friend who has a motorcycle storage business in the city and he tells me "riding season" is generally march-october.

Curious as to how cold is too cold for you to ride,

 

When the days high temperature is 49° or less (I live in Florida so it's not that often).

 

maybe its me but doesnt it seem like 1/2 of florida used to live in ny

 

Never too cold in Ohio. The issue is salt and ice. I ride into the teens.

 

Black Ice sucks so about 36F is as low as i ride. My boss has rode his to work at -17F. His ride is only around 2 miles...lol

 

No real minimum.

All dependent on other factors; if there's ice on the road, I won't ride no matter what the temps.

If there's no ice on the roads, I've ridden in temps down to 13-15 degrees Fahrenheit. Would have still gone if it had been colder as long as no ice.

 

Mid October or beginning of November

 

Virginia - rarely too cold to ride. The issue, as stated already, is ice. I'll lay off mid 30s unless it been really dry. Then you can break the freezing point.

I make it a point to not leave the bike in the garage for longer than a week without putting some highway miles on it - minimum of 12 at highways speeds for preventive medicine.

 

My cutoff is 38 Degrees. Mostly due to worrying about Ice.

 

Yep, ice is the real concern. Typically, if no rain or snow for a week or so, there won't be run off that freezes over night.
