I have to say I really enjoyed my time here in NC (almost 4 years). My gf and I are moving to NE since we both have family up there and want to settle down. The Raleigh area is very nice, but getting very built up, especially the Cary/Morrisville/Apex areas. I haven't seen snow in 3 winters and it is just extremely hot down here during the summer, especially this summer. I plan on cycling to my new job if it's at all possible and going on some nice weekend rides.
