The problem with Nor Cal is they have this thing called WINTER! Snow FTL! I'd rather have good roads, 12-month riding weather, and be close to Baja, great off-roading, camping, fishing, and diving down there.

Beautiful road and area out there.

We have some decent roads in OH, but most are chewed up from Amish buggy and covered in road apples.
Yep, I lived in Akron for a while with nothing but the bike, there are some nice roads in OH (especially Southern OH, my grandfather lives in Monroe County, Woodsfield) but they're not always in the best shape.

ehh depends on where you go. I lived in Marysville... about 45 mins north of Sac... all we got was Rain... now if you went into the mountains... yeah they got snow... but never got anything more than rain at my place...

I'll check it out, the other issue is that if I am in California I will be in extreme southern california, working for CBP I have to be on a border. I'll check out Nor Cal, and I hear the coast roads in Oregon are amazing, but that'll be on vacation.
