Fayetteville is only a Bronze-level ride center. :( Bentonville is Silver.

The only Gold in the world is Park City, UT.

This is all stuff just in the city-limits:

quote:

Fayetteville offers more than 50 miles of riding for all skill levels, with multiple trail systems near the heart of downtown. Special to the area are the trails of Mt. Kessler and Mt. Sequoyah, which offer a backcountry experience through the natural beauty of the Ozark Mountains. Fayetteville has numerous amenities to offer: 4,000 acres of parks, more than 40 miles of paved trails, several bike shops and more than 300 restaurants in addition to an award-winning farmer’s market, the Walton Arts Center and the Botanical Gardens of the Ozarks.

I know because having mountain bike trails in your city isn't fun?

I live in Atlanta. It's Platinum level. Atlanta has some of the most dangerous and breath-taking bike paths you've ever seen. If you can safely navigate Atlanta streets on a bike, you can ride anywhere.

most bike riders are kinda douches, so i enjoy not having those kind of people around me.

so.. not ranking here is winning from my understanding?

Ok. Cycling is fun though.

I'm going to take all the negatives as jelly.

This is what the OTB has become? Discussing which city has the best mountain biking?

Let's discuss which city has the best municipal sewer systems next.

The Knoxville area has some pretty good mtn biking. Definitely some of the best in the southeast.

People forget how much fun riding a bike is, I try and do it as often as I can...especially to and from the bar.

Fayetteville must have some good trails because Helena, MT has some really good downhills.

Seriously, there are a couple great mountain biking trails by the airport, but generally speaking, people in Baton Rouge hate anyone that's not driving a car. Cycling doesn't get a lot of support.

I've abused my body enough in my life so I put some road tires on my Trek. There's a great trail on the North Shore, it hits the Abita brewery, their brewpub, and 2 microbreweries.
