I like Pittsburgh. Not a terrible fan of the weather, but other than that it's a great city.

How is the riding?
Not so great. The roads are generally in terrible shape (see: weather) and the drivers are some of the worst you'll find (see: Pittsburgh left, Pittsburgh wave, maintain speed through tunnels).

I saw there is a track a little north, but I'm coming from WV which has twisties freakin' everywhere!
There's Pitt Race (formerly BeaveRun) about half an hour north. It's a nice track - I've never taken the bike up there, but they do run bike days.

How is it to live there, good people, traffic, nightlife, general vibe...??
Good people, terrible traffic, good nightlife, general vibe is positive and eclectic. It's very much not the dirty industrial steeltown that it once was. It's one of the most livable cities in the U.S. and has booming technology and entertainment industries.
