I am also in Minneapolis. I love the great bike paths around here. The commuter paths, reginal trails, Hennepen park paths, paths around the lakes - Cedar, Calhoun, etc and other paths. I have been thinking of moving to North Carolina and I had told me my wife my number one selection criteria for the location WITHIN North Varolina would be the presense of biker friendly paths. This certainly makes NC seem like a bad place for a biker to go.

Do some more home work. There are some excellent areas in NC for riding.
