Here in Northern Calif. the many secondary/tertiary roads that make for great bicycle routes are poorly maintained. Until the Tour of Calif. started using Tunitas Creek Road for one of the stages, the surface reminded me of a bombing range. Now many of the craters have been filled. I read the Sonoma County is considering letting some roads 'revert' to gravel.
Funds to maintain roads here are diminishing and that seems unlikely to improve any time soon. I'm stocking up on fat/er tires. They work great for the 'roads of the future'. -JimD On Sep 29, 2011, at 6:19 PM, Ryan Watson wrote: > > On Sep 29, 2011, at 16:46, PATRICK MOORE <bertin...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> We are fortunate here in NM; our roads are quite good with regular >> upkeep and improvements like bike lanes. > > I'm not sure what alternate universe Patrick rides in, but most of the NM > roads I ride are in pretty rough shape. > I ride those fat 650Bs for a reason! > > Cheers, > Ryan > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "RBW Owners Bunch" group. > To post to this group, send email to rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rbw-owners-bunch+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rbw-owners-bunch?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
