    I was drinking a bit, enjoying my night, and thinking about what my favorite ride in Free Rider HD was. Since I'm a bit drunk I couldn't come up with a definitive answer, but was curious what yalls favorite ride was.

    fantastic thread, love it

    here are some of my faves of all time:
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/955926-1-4 (best trial of all time imo)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/959258-ambition (im biased, but truly dont think youll find many other tracks with more gameplay variety or fun concepts than this)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/927503-rain-kids (crazy amount of replayability)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/820399-the-scientist (cf is a genius)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/680227-onyx (one of 2 tracks on the site where ride and detail are equally fantastic)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/682672-skeleton-sea (one of 2 tracks on the site where ride and detail are equally fantastic)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/681633-gravitic-flux (the best use of vehicles on the site hands down, this track never fails to impress when i replay it)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/278698-exalted (feels like an epic journey)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/191253-magnum-opus (no comment needed)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/81378-wooden-bucket (such a fun track)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/53080-yellow-mountain (ride feels like i am climbing a mountain)

    editing as i think of more;
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/967246-10k-sqm (super sad this has a huge cut, because it's among the most fun ive ever had playing this game. 100% VOUCH to play - do it without skipping!!!)

    These are some favorites, just b/c of how much I've played through them and how memorable they are to me. Also I feel like I've been influenced a lot from these rides:
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/2226-contest-entry and others from plastic
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/50152-lithium and others from cky and I feel like they played even better on BHR
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/863874-taiga-classic
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1069-futurerootslv3-2 and others from hawnks really grew on me(max's enthusiasm for hawnks really rubbed off on me too)

    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/123440-number-1 not really a favorite but I still really like it
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/51574-legion and https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/153182-jotunheim and https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1038-preview are tracks I used to play over and over so I feel like there is definitely something charming there for me(prob has a lot to do w/ the art)
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/93293-session this one I wish it kept on going for longer

    my fav rides aren't really smooth rides but offroad/climb tracks like this. Weird, I know, but I really like trials and offroads so these are my favourite.

    In order of what comes to mind for 15 mins:

    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/838313-cansado-gbc3r8 - first mtb that came to mind
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/927503-rain-kids - first bmx that came to mind
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/739741-sld-dirt-factory-2020 - so clean
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/921133-practice-makes-perfect - couple of the more recent ones from capn cook/odezi were also great rides, can't find
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/953727-m-e-0-f-n-t-i-g-d-n-w - anything from chaos
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/861490-ivan - most of the later mild offroad mtb rides from radium were cruisy
    the plasticorps were/are fun for old bmx
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/365006-ae-cave04 - shouldn't really be here, but keeping it cause the shock value is still there for the first sections before it devolves into madness
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/275122-fish-bowl
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/768709-all-we-need
    that old track that can't be finished cause the stars are too high on the half/quarter pipe. by like penguins or albatross or max. alaska themed. bunch of routes. I think featured. [EDIT: found it from Maple 's post above -- the futureroots series of tracks. Not as fantastic as I remember, but still fun adventures]
    something from zwinxz I can't remember right now, also something from figured, anything from rationalities
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/906266-the-origins
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/873989-behemoth

    End of timer, cheers.

    Enjoyed the last search, here's another, 30 minutes. In order of what comes to mind:

    ..this is mostly turning out to be an exercise in not being able to find old tracks.

    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/686024-speedys-racing-series-2020-rd5 - one of the best in my memory at the fast low angle style jumps
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/9292-alice
    can't find: an unfinished halloween/witch/fall themed smooth mtb track from 1-3 years ago. has 3 or 4 routes through the same space that you are forced to take via portal restarts. Lots of rooftop rides/straight line planks. Thought it was nandolorris or zgolex or netsik, but nope. Someone will probably know this one.
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/754786-ajaokuta - speaking of netsik..
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/721196-clandestine-ii-ft-ration - more figured
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/951551-7up - favorite of the latest mra bunch, makes mtb feel like bmx somehow
    can't find: really fast-paced downhill western-themed track, has a lot of close flying falling over natural landscapes. I think was somewhat unfinished detail near the end. Ride is notable because the pace is mad and its like 2 minutes long. I'll be surprised if anyone can find this one, cause that's not enough info to go off of.
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/u/pchapero2/created - these have the easy smooth style but have enough tolerance that they ride more fun than like a greatgnome sleepy track
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/407103-spruce-says-3-the-desert - the spurce says series
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/937319-pollyanna - something from fiendish, this recent one came to mind, the right section is good
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/141352-pathway-ii
    can't find: large wooden skatepark with without a set route, 15ish stars, graffiti style, maybe featured - https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/1082-monkie-park
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/931408-lucario-v - idk the ride stood out as fun
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/733058-hydra - the elevation stands out
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/867820-eclipsis - recent fun one
    feel like there were some fun rides by josephhd, but lots of short tracks posted so not going to dig through
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/870048-neptunes-wave - maybe partly from the good art, but the ride is neatly situated
    can't find: starts underground, has multiple routes, by reborn or cityshep or something, there's a well on the left side and maybe in the middle, heli on the bottom right, kindof trialey, has piles of rubble blocking mine shafts

    The end

    More people should post here this is a good thread

    Edit: Also I think I used to have strong opinions on this but I really haven't played tracks for such a long time that I kinda forgot the ones I liked the most. I like hawks I remember that

    this is really how i feel, I haven't played many tracks in the past many years so I don't feel like I can give a good current opinion. around canvasrider times I thought Vapaa, Ness, and Easternbiker made fun tracks but there's probably plenty more that I can't remember
