How’s the weather up there for riding? Not afraid of water, just careful with it.

    Thanks for your insight. Thinking about relocating, I’m a lot more fond of two vs 4 wheelers. But trying to determine if that’s doable, vs my current socal environs.

    How nasty do winters get?

      The last ~5 years the winters have gotten pretty nasty. It used to maybe snow 1-2 days a year, but lately we’ve had weeks of snow/nasty weather during the winter. Combine that with the hills and there is probably a good month or two where you would be pretty uncomfortable. I used to commute ~1 hour in the rain, and it wasn’t too bad with a fully body weather suit, but I never tried it in the snow. Infrastructure is pretty much 0 for snow except maybe on I-5. The general approach to snow has been “let it melt”.
