[SIZE=2]Top three!!!??? This is going to be really tough.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Well, not in any order, and I must add that my list is subject to change.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]
  • Thunder Mountain - Utah
  • 401 Trail - Colorado (but really anything in the CB area - oh heck, anything in CO - Hermosa Creek, etc., etc., etc.)
  • Sycamore Canyon - California (if I were to pick a "local" ride)
Man, this is too tough... [/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Fruita? YES. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]McKenzie River Trail, OR? YES. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Brian Head, UT? YES.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]This just makes me depressed, as I'm sitting at work daydreaming of places I've been (and places I want to go).[/SIZE]

d00d, top 3?! Man... I don't know. Just reading everyone else's posts I could name 10 without even thinking...

- Squamish (trails, scenery, technical)
- Thunder Mountain (scenery, singletrack)
- Noble Canyon (local)

I'd like to say I feel PAINED at only being choose 3

You can get lots of places and not drive, just need to grease the right wheels mang!

Also, I don't support shuttling. If I can climb on my DH bike, others should suffer too!!!!!


well the difference is when your done suffering from the climbing, you can drink a few beers...
im stuck on juice and water still

First ride I thought of was Lower Rock Creek, mid-week, in the fall.

The other two are hard to decide. Maybe Holy Jim, or connecting the single tracks of El Moro and Laguna Wilderness, or Mammoth, love to ride Mammoth with my wife.

So there you got four!
