Summer days can be so hot and humid here that I do little riding from late June to end of August. Hope your winter days are pleasant ones and next years riding season starts early.
Thanks redbirds, that's my hope too.
Over the last decade our winters seemed to gradually become shorter, start later and not be as brutally cold in January and February. Serious winter didn't really start until January and a white Christmas almost never happened here where I am on the Atlantic coast.
That all changed last year. Winter arrived in November and stayed. It was cold and wet well into Spring. It was the type of weather that drove you crazy; cold for a few days; mild for a few days; repeat.
We're all hoping that this will not be repeated this winter, but it is what it is and you have to take whatever you're given by Mother Nature.
But I can't complain about this past summer. Not as wet as summers past and great riding weather right into October.

Nov 1 33 degrees and snowing out, I'm getting ready to go for a ride! It's only cold rain Lol
Yes, that's what I'll have to do and be envious of those in milder climates
33? Snowing? Ride?
You were kidding weren't you? If not, have fun
