I have relocated to the midwest from Los Angeles. Currently I am in the Quad Cities (crashing at my parent's house). As I am searching for a teaching job (HS Science -- know of any? PM me), I am also looking at the Twin Cities.

I am trying to weigh living in each area. Bicycling is not very popular around the Quad Cities (only 1 race team and 1 real riding club). What about the Twin Cities?

Nate PM'd me about BigRingFlyers in Hudson. What other teams / groups are there around the Cities? Primarily a roadie, I have fallen back in love with X-Country riding.

So, feedback? Suggestions? Thoughts?

Thanks
David
