Would rather keep it nice and not risk going down on loose gravel that is absolutely everywhere especially in the center of lane & at turns and stops, so that along with exposing it to all the salt keeps me off the road.

Could you ride all year here... maybe, would it be fun..... not likely....your chances of going down skyrocket up.... yes.
Besides, the thought of heated seats and heated steering wheel, makes me feel all warm and cozy inside
