Spring time in Il after the roads have weathered the subzero temps and ice. Snowplows peel away large peices of road and then Construction season starts. Even down state most people drive like they are in Death Race 2000. I-80 is heavy with truck traffic and morons trying to get to nowhere fast. I-55 has same issues. I am sure Chicago riders have it worse.

The Cross-Bronx Expressway & The Brooklyn Queens/Gowanus Expressway in NYC. Bikes should NOT be allowed on those roads. Malfunction junction in Tampa is cake compared to those!
Highway 90 between Lafayette and New Iberia. It is about 20 miles of nascar racing on the worst concrete track imaginable. Then throw in cane trucks this time of year and you are really in for some fun.
Las Vegas, NV has a lethal combination of tourists, illegal aliens, retired folks and road construction that make it one of the most deadly city's in America for motorcyclists.
Any road in AZ from October to April. The blue hairs/snow birds will kill you. Had one run a stop sign in front of me last week. He looked like he was 90 yrs old. I doubt he could even see past the front of his car.

So true, but then there's the mountain roads with blind decreasing radius curves, no guard rails and the possibility of sand or gravel scattered about. That'll pucker 'ur butt.

lol it's funny because it's true.
also, right now in queens, northern boulevard has about a 2 block stretch of the big metal plates.
really sucks.
the worst part of riding roads that are full of potholes and dips and **** is you end up looking down at the road, trying to get thru as smooth as possible.
