Oh yeah, those mountains we were all recently arguing about whether you need a triple to ride.

Depends on what you mean by mountains, hills really but here's a typical photo from Santa Rosa Cycling Club. Originally Posted by Starfish

Truckee, Ca, near Lake Tahoe. Beautiful scenery, great road and world class mountain biking. Close to Sacramento, Sonoma, San Fransisco, but not nearly as hot (80 as opposed to over 100 degrees). Skiing in the winter... Who could ask for more?

Consider Vermont- I think we've got everything you were looking for. (And er um plenty of snow in April as well.) If you need a really big city, you wouldn't like it here, but if you're into small cities Burlington and Montpelier have a lot going for them. I'm within 1-2 miles of a really neat downtown- and I go running/biking on endless dirt road networks without having to drive to get there.
