This is just the question I have been looking into! I live in Cincinnati which has a great club and pretty good riding - just too much winter! I did visit Colorado since I love hiking/camping also, but it is just so expensive - plus there is a lack of water issue. I am focusing on the southeast because it is more affordable and there are mountains and pretty good year-round climate. Knoxville seems to be a nice location, near mountains and very affordable. As you get to Florida - not many hills, different kind of terrain, but alot of water, wind can be an issue (makes up for not having hills!). The carolinas look pretty nice - but I have not been there yet. Recommend you check out clubs in each area via internet to determine who has a strong club, then go visit. You might also consider a putting week long tours in your cycling mix - they can be great and not very expensive!
