We who live in the Northern tier of States think it's 24-7 weather for scooters in Florida, but in reality it's not. They have their weather problems. Maybe not cold temps/snow/ice, but rain, storms, etc. I have an Brother-in-law who lives in the FL panhandle. He rides a Harley and I know there are more than a few days each year he can't ride becuase of the weather. Just recently he was cage bound for almost a week because of the tropical storm that made landfall not far from where he lives.

We can ride 12 months of the year too-only in the winter it is prudent to wait until the morning black ice thaws. I feel very grateful to get to ride each month and hate days when I can't. I can only feel sorry for those trapped in states where the bike/scooter has to be winterized and stored. Bummer. There ARE snow mobiles and 4wd fun though, skiing, snow boarding, sledding etc.

Not me. When Winter comes, the scoot is stored for the duration. I get no enjoyment riding a scooter dressed in a snowmobile suit. We usually get a few warm days through out the Winter. If the streets are dry and not covered with salt residue, I try to get out when I can.

You can ride a scooter in Ohio at least 9 months out of the year.

It's closer to 7-8 months here in this part of Illinois. Of course it depends on the severity of the Winter. Actually you can ride 12 months a year here, if you really want to. It depends on how hardcore or stupid you are, to ride a scooter!!!!
