Title: Tomato Highway Post by: hankthe8th on May 07, 2008, 12:49:32 PM I've got a question for all of you central valley riders out there. I've just got my bike in December, so I have yet to experience the summertime rides on the glorious highway 99. But with all of those trucks carrying tomatoes, dumping water/tomato juice runoff everywhere, is it slippery or is it sticky when it dries? Sometimes you can see the coating of juice on 2 out of 3 lanes. So the question is: Slippery more than sticky? or Sticky more than slippery?
Keep it clean people.

I just try to avoid the Campbell's Convoys all together. Head to the hills instead and enjoy yourself.
