What weather keeps you from riding?

[Triple]

I've ridden in just about everything at one time or another. Generally speaking, if it's dry I ride, regardless of temperature. I avoid rain when possible but still get soaked good and regular.

Also, a little lesson for those of us year-rounders:

Rain. I hate rain. The majority of my rain gear does a great job keeping the rain off me, however, my pants are destroyed from reversing the order of pants > shoes in the morning a few too many times.

The cold doesn't bother me much anymore with heated gear, or at least the winters around here. I only have jacket and gloves.

I also really hate when my helmet fogs up in either of the aforementioned conditions.

Snow/ice on the road I won't (besides my 'round the block I did last weekend )
If it's raining when I would leave for work, then no. I don't mind a "pleasure" ride in the rain, or riding home from work in it, but being wet all day at the office is not my idea of fun.

I am with ya on riding to work and being wet. A few times I would leave one job to go to another, so it was a guessing game/roll of the dice on the weather. A few times I choose poorly and got clobbered in the rain which made for a sucky day.

I have GOT to get heated gear at some point. Just not yet.

When it gets really windy here, we have gusts from 25 to 50 mph so me and the bike would get blown away. And anything over 106 degrees

I've been spoiled by the places I live. My rule of thumb is that anything under 50 degrees is too cold.

To be fair, I'm 6'6" on a Supersport (usually) so wind protection is minimal and my commute is about 25 miles each way and mostly highway. I'm starting to look for something with more legroom, and the wind protection factor is part of the reason I'm looking at sport-tourers rather than cruisers with bags.
