Plenty of hills, plenty of undulating stuff, a nice mix of flats etc...not much traffic & a zillion different training routes....I'm blessed........just wish it was a little warmer in winter!,

LOL, I guess it won't be the sole decision maker, more likely it will be job opps, etc etc. Thought it would be interesting to hear opinions and be a good way to get an impression before I actually get there ... whereever it turns out to be. Fiance is in Pharmaceutical Research over here so could end up in any of the three.
I am from BrisVegas but since I left my sister moved to Sydney and my brother moved to Mellers. I have a lot of family down there in Victoria and I really love the city but yeah I would hate the winter ... and in Brisso, coming back from New England I think I wouldn't handle the summer too well either... but that's where the oldies are...
Good point about the Sydney traffic ... probably would be a bit nasty.
