Where im living now, Melbourne:
1) Huge price tag on bike parts
2) Way to spread out, any riding is at least an hour out of the city, including dirt jumps. cant think of anything else I love everything else about this place.
Home,Victoria:
1) No real mountains near the city either, You gota drive out to sooke or up island for a good DH run.
2) Small city so not much quality entertainment(e.g gigs in the city), gotta head over Vancouver making it expensive.

:eek2: You should be ashamed of yourself for complaining about Vancouver.
1) You would't be complaining about the rain if you lived in a place where the winter meant -20 and a blanket of snow and ice (and no hope of riding), and the summer meant +35 and ridiculous humidity (making riding difficult and unpleasant during daylight hours).
2) Ride your bike. If Vancouver isn't built 100% around the auto, maybe that isn't such a bad thing.
3) Your cost of housing is high because you live in the best city in the country. Housing is cheaper everywhere else, because everywhere else sucks in comparison to Vancouver. Except for Toronto, which is expensive simply for being crowded. And Montreal, which is expensive because all the anglophones in Quebec huddle together for support.
OTTAWA:
1) There's no trails to make owning a mtb worthwhile. None. The closest thing is Camp Fortune, which is pretty much Stokes Pit on an angle. My XC bike has only seen pavement, and my playbike has become an urban bike. If you don't appreciate the trails you have while you are there, you sure will when you leave.
2) Mustaches. Apparently if you are over 40 and work for the government, which everyone here does, owning and operating a mustache is a requirement.*shudders.
3) Pollution. No sea breeze to blow it away.
Pretty much every other place I've lived, I would compare it to Vancouver, and wish I was back home.
Nelson.
1) Mountains block the view of the prairies to the East and the desert/fog to the West.
2) Trails are too quiet.
3) Starbucks is out of town.
4) oh yeah… cost of housing.

I'd rather have hippies than chav's any day.
Currently: Seoul, South Korea
1) Summertime humidity. Yuck…
2) Massive air pollution mixed with #1. More yuck.
3) I'm surrounded by about 10 million of the worst Korean drivers (just in Seoul), causing #2. And I ride a dirtbike…It's an adventure, sometimes, but at least I can hop onto sidewalks when traffic is nasty.
The best things in life all start with the letter B
Hooray for: Bacon, Bikeys, Boobies, Boards, and Beer!
Peeegeee
1. too many mills
2. too many hicks
3. its PG
Malta
1) kinda small so everyone knows everything about you as soon as you do something.
2) lets just say we dont have the highest quality of things around.
3) dont get all the shops and stores that there are abroad.
I spent 5-weeks in Malta a few years ago putting a sat-comms earth station together. (Just South of the airport on the 'coast').
Got sun-burnt to a cinder unloading the equipment on day one. The system's room didn't have any windows, so the electronics were caked in dust within a week. We (I was working with two American's) were out most nights and we must have seen most places within the first couple of weeks.
Good times. :)

oh yes, thats why I left england.
Wash., DC
like:
1 - the pace of the city. everyone is young, well educated, healthy and good looking.
2 - No skyscrapers. There is an limit on how high you can build a building here. (i believe it's the hight of the capital.) as a result, the city is like a massive tightly packed town. very cool.
3 - The Metro (read it, there is some cool shite)
dislike:
1 - it's fucking expensive.
2 - It can be a tad spread out, but for me it's nothing, as i am always on a bike drunk.
