How many of you have actually considered moving to a southern location, with year-round bike riding in mind?

I get around a lot in my business. But right now, I find myself caught in eastern Nebraska where the leaves have fallen, the nights and many days are cold or chilly, and there has been a lot of high wind lately. It's gone quickly from hot, humid and buggy riding to cold, windy and downright uncomfortable. Soon there will be lots of snow and ice.

I'm suddenly really motivated to get a new management job in a southern latitude somewhere. As much for comfortable bike riding as anything else. Actually, to be honest about it - MUCH MORE about comfortable winter time bike riding than any other reason!

I'm wondering - have any of you actually MOVED so you can ride? Have you let your bicycle take control of your life to the point that you have actually packed up and relocated?
