The entire Northwest. It's always wet and slippery and just plain dreary outside. As soon as the sun comes out everything gets blown out with brake bumps and moon dust. Never, ever go there to ride.

Pisgah, NC
Never seen a place so overhyped. The weather is always unpredictable, either pouring rain from a thunderstorm ruining the trails or it's too hot and humid to even ride.
Not to mention the trails aren't even built for bikes, just a bunch of old, eroded hiking trails and logging roads with roots and ruts and no flow. Random rocks placed everywhere with no reason making some sections unrideable.
A lot of the climbs are too steep and technical and you spend half your day hiking.
Ridiculous anyone would go there.

Moab
It's just a bunch of doubletrack jeep roads overrun with tourists.
Can I actually get a decent descent for maybe 30 seconds before I have to pedal up a big rock again?
The town has no good restaurants and the beer is plain shit.

This thread rocks. I think the places I ride are so disappointing and shitty, they don't even make this thread. I win.
Well maybe I'm the faggot America

Riding in Summit Co is great. It’s weird that they only have those two lifts which start and stop in the same places. But you can pretty much hit all the good trails from them. Definitely not epic like Angel Fire though!

I just got back from Moab after spending a decade only hiking the area. The new trails they have cut are pretty damn good. No, it isn’t unlimited descents, and anyone who likes sand has a screw loose, but I retract my earlier pronouncement on this destination. The local community there has built a lot of fun stuff with beautiful and amazing views. I’ll be back in two days for more.

I really don't care what they're built on, where they're built or what the stupid food in town tastes like, or how pretentious the stupid IPAs at the brewery taste.
2 simple principles and I'm pretty happy

^^ That beautifully crafted chart just won the thread. There's nothing better than getting to the top of a big ass climb, taking a break, knowing it's all downhill fun from here.

Or any trail in southwestern bc with a bunch bare granite rock rolls™ that for some reason always need to be climbed. Because they're just so exciting to roll down the other side! Again, and again, and again.
There's a section of the rim trail here in tahoe that's like that. I can't for the life of me understand how anyone likes that shit. It's like a stair master with a bike that just happens to be underneath you.

It also means that the climbs are very short and almost unnoticeable..
maybe my sarcasm meter is broken but if you all are serious.. my brain just can't register someone rolling into moab.. riding around the hundreds of miles of different types of trail there.. and leaving going "meh."...tricks deserve applause, style deserves respect
