This is why I live in Utah
Bryce Roberts and I get out on the trail several times a week during the mountain biking season (and up on the slopes during the winter - by the way, Snowbird is still open with tons of snow). Utah has some excellent trails just minutes from our houses (we live a block from each other).
We went out Saturday night to help me recuperate from a difficult (but successful) end of Alfresco's quarter. Riding at dusk, the air at 70 degrees Farenheit...perfection.
I'm going to be organizing a mountain biking tour of Utah. If you like to bike, let me know. Maybe we'll let Sam Ramji school us on the Porcupine in Moab....
So, let me ask the perennial question again: You don't live in Utah...why?
Matt Asay brings a decade of in-the-trenches open-source business and legal experience to The Open Road, with an emphasis on emerging open-source business strategies and opportunities. Matt is vice president of business development at Alfresco, a company that develops open-source software for content management. He is a member of the CNET Blog Network and is not an employee of CNET. Disclosure. You can follow Matt on Twitter @mjasay. 
... 'cos you live there. Next question. ;-)
Seriously, depending on where you live, you don't actually see pesky Mormons like me. I live in a neighborhood that is maybe 25% LDS (Mormon). So move on out! I promise I won't bring you a pie. Unless you ask. In which case I'm happy to start baking.
Never did much biking while I was there, but love the snowboarding in winter.
I am not a savy in Open Source, but I am a great fan of OS use. I'll Let you know when I am around UT for the byke ride. Bye from Dom Rep.

- LDS Living Magazine is a Mormon / Utah magazine that has done several great stories on living in Utah. Matthew Kennedy is the owner of the magazine and lives in Utah. He is from Mesa, Arizona but has settled in Utah. I was living in New York when I read Kennedy's article. I have since moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm glad I read the LDS Living article.
