Aloha Petcul,
Your post caught my eye as intriguing as I tried to arrange the same sort of thing. Must have posted on the wrong site as nothing gelled and I wound up renting a Bike in Germany for a much shorter period of time than I would have liked.
Anyways, thought I'd throw this out there even though I'm not exactly in the area you were looking at:
I have a small home in the mountains of Southern California and keep an 1150 GSA there. Time is not an issue since I live in Hawaii at the moment and only get to enjoy the bike and house about once a year, the rest of the time it all sits empty and unused.
The place is in a small resort town called Big Bear Lake perched at 7000 ft on the rim of the toilet bowl known as Los Angeles and is quite pleasant as it never gets that hot in the summer and even has snow and skiing in the winter. There's some nice riding in the local mountains, but, alas, it takes about a day of boring riding to get to any of the noteworthy spots like the National parks in southern Utah or in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California and a day and a half for the Rockies.
Hawaii is also an option, but while many consider these islands paradise, for any real riding its more of an antiparadise (to coin a new word).

If this holds any interest for you, drop me a line and I can give you more details and talk further.
