Title: As if the snow and salt weren't enough...
Post by: annieoakley on March 09, 2010, 14:47:51 PM
Okay, so now the snow is melted and it is 60 degrees, and I rode my bike to work! Life is good, or so I thought. Now the state highway has decided that it needs to make the roads a death trap to motorcycles. The pictures don't show it like it really is. The entire road is covered in course sand that has oil under it. I couldn't take longer shot because there was too much traffic. It will take a major gully washer to get rid of all of this sand, before any bikes can travel this road safely.  >:(

Funny, there's no sand here.  We just had a white layer of salt.  We only live a short ride apart.

Hmmm.... interesting. I'll give the state highway a call and tell them they missed your road!  :P
