Depends on your pain threshold... I typically ride solidly well into November, plenty of good riding days of 45 degrees and above, which I consider "normal".

With better gear, and maybe something like the 9sx hand wind deflectors, I am OK from about 35 degrees and up, and that will cover some of december, though it starts getting colder and wetter.

Jan and Feb will usually give you a couple riding days each, and March will allow the "45 degree and up" thing to come back into play.

It's a nice area to live though, both Dayton and Cincinnati are under appreciated in terms of what they offer versus cost of living and opportunity.

Email me offline if you are looking for particular areas around here, either for living or for riding.
