    New to Denver, any Miata guys out here?

    Just relocated from North Texas and I'm looking to see if I can dig up some Miata guys in the Denver or surrounding area. Give a shout if you're in this neck of the woods....or should I say mountains.

    Ha! I just moved to Lakewood! I was told to be CAREFUL while driving through Morrison, so FYI!

    How do you guys like living in CO? Seems like you both transitioned from warmer climates, is it REALLY a huge difference? I'm originally from London, so I feel as if I can battle some fierce coldness, but I'm afraid that being in Texas for so long has made me a bit of a wimp, lol.

    I've always wanted to move to that region of the US though, seems like a beautiful place to live.

    I lived in CO for 6 months, two years ago. Moved to CO from Tampa, FL; so I know what you mean. It does get cold, no bones about it, and windy too!

    I'm a runner, which means I spent an innurdanate amount of time outdoors, and that helps get used to whatever weather conditions are. While living in Tulsa, I got used to running in 110+ weather with 30% + humidity.

    That said, take the best of Austin, the best of Houston and the best of San An; add some altitude and well, you get Denver!

    Damn, that sounds pretty nice. I've actually spent a considerable amount of time in all three of those cities, so Denver is starting to look like a sweet spot to live!

    Running in 110+ degree weather? You're a madman!
