Dropped because one guy decides he can't contain himself on the Monday night easy ride and all the other guys chase- that's annoying

Dropped from Tuesday Night Worlds- not annoying
Fall back from the A group to the B group on the big Saturday ride- not annoying
Can't keep up with the epic endurance ride and ask people to please go on without you, you'll limp it home- not annoying

And definitely the circumstance you describe- invited on a ride, not your route, don't know where you are, get dropped- annoying
Actually the last one could be dangerous in some cases.

Another one where I'd call it more than a minor annoyance would be where they've invited you out on a ride that requires you drive an hour or more to get to, and it turns out they've misrepresented what the ride would be like.
