Title: Road Conditions - 2010 edition Post by: CDawg on April 29, 2010, 05:01:28 AM This was a popular thread last year so I'm bringing it back. As Spring is upon us, drop a note here on the road conditions (good and bad) to help each other avoid roads that are in bad shape.

Loose gravel and sand in nearly ALL of the corners across the whole road!!! I don't know what the hell happend up there, but stay off Wooley for a while until the cages have mofre of a chance to push that stuff to the side.

What's a rabbit? Radar detector? Or sometimes I call speeders ahead of me rabbits because I like them to go through the briar patch and attract the cops before I do.... disabled vehicles do the same kind of thing in VA at least.

Rode on it once, and never went back. that one doesnt count. I ride it everyday from brooklyn bridge to 155th st (2exits from the GWB) you need to learn where all the pot holes are! Im glad to say that alot of roads that have been in construction in the past few years are VERY good. Van Wyck and partso fo 2nd ave broooklyn have been paved! |
