Next month starts the countdown to the day I graduate with
my teaching degree...ok, it'll take 2 1/2, maybe 3 years if I add another minor
to my degree so it's not a pressing question...but
I want to live somewhere I can RIDE all year long.
Somewhere I can compete at least once a month (within a day's drive maybe
up to 18 hours away). I don't care if it gets cold and even if it snows a
LITTLE as long as I have decent trails available and can ride as often as I'd
like to. We've talked about the west mostly....AZ or NM. But boy,
those snake stories are NOT cool!!!! :) And it's pretty far from
family. What do you think about "middle" southern states???? (The snakes
sound scary there, too.) The job market for my degree is going to be best
in CA, AZ, NM and FL...high school English/Spanish teacher with English as a
Second Language maybe. I would definitely be coming home to Michigan to
ride my summer rides and keep managing the Wolverine (they'll have to pry that
away from my cold dead fingers!). :) This is all "someday" musings
but once I start school, the course will be in motion and I have some definite
plans on my "to do before I die" list. :) So, send me your
recommendations and suggestions. In the coming years (while I'm still in
school), I will be wanting to travel to some of these areas and try out the
rides and see the sights and meet the people. :) (Do you really
think I just want to RIDE at Big South Fork?? ). :)
