The NW isn't known for having extreme temperatures in the summer but I can tell you, it's no fun sitting on a hot bike with the sun beating down on you. It gets exhausting and "this isn't fun anymore" pretty quick.
The weekend get away I just returned from had some great roads and beautiful scenery. I thought quite a bit about what kind of car would give the same feel and experience as a bike but also be comfortable. It wouldn't be a Cobra or Vette for me but it would have AC and a ragtop for sure.

Thanks Bash.
I like bikes, and I know a soon to be 81 year old fellow that still rides, long distances too, which I think is very cool.
Good point about how well does one fit in a Vette, (or a Cobra for that matter), and how long would it be comfortable.
TBD...
