3. Excessive heat << I lived in west Texas. Big fat nope.
9. Car traffic << Yes cars suck.
6. Dogs << Dog owners are the problem. Much much less of a problem in the PNW than the midwest.
And the rest, transitioning into things I enjoy and seek out
5. Wind << HTFU opportunity
4. Snow/ice << Snow can be fun. Ice can be accommodated with studs, but generally I'd prefer not
2. Cold temperatures << Fixable with gear
1. Rain << Also fixable with gear
8. Darkness << Night riding is thoroughly enjoyable
10. Poor riding surfaces << With the right tires and attitude, I'll seek this out
7. Hills << When I lived in west Texas, I'd ride for an hour just to find a hill to ride.
