I often laugh at this assumption when most of the country is warmer than Fl. in August.
Watch the weather and you'll see, our summers are less hot than most of the country.

No assumption rounder, I've lived down south.... plus almost anywhere from where I am is "south".

Plus there is more "south" than just Florida, and a lot more land mass in the south that does not have the cooling effects of water around them.

Try this.I have to go scrape the ice and 8" of snow off the car.....I hate winter in Chicago. This is one of the reasons bike week in Daytona is so popular. I look at my bike when I get the shovel out!!!!!!

Yeller,
My son lives in Clearwater and takes about every chance he can this time of year when it's snowy and cold up here that it's nice down there. Well, you're forgiven cause you ride a Harley, my son rides a CR so he's half crazy anyway.....

Hey we all have our seasons. This is definetly the time of year for riding here in Tampa. The rainy season will be here soon enough.

To you guys up north - just keep hammering on the mods so the bike will be looking good after the thaw!
