Aerostitch made a poster some time back with the "ridable" days in a year for various places around the country. It's a map of the contiguous lower 48 and has bold numbers plastered on different areas around the country. In my neck of the woods it has a very large 361, indicating the good people at Aerostitch think I have 361 days of ridable weather. California sucks for many reasons. Riding season is not one of them.
