They just tarred and graveled my road.  7 miles of nice connected sweepers, solid gravel piles.  I have to go about a mile in either direction to get to clean pavement.   Bummer!!!!

At least you know where it is. The unexpected loose stuff right in the middle of a tight sweeper , thats something to complain about.

I carefully made my way down my once wonderful 4 miles of sweepers to clean pavement, thought - "Lets go play" on my secret special road - big long straight with 0 traffic and good visibility followed by a tight set of twisties with some pretty good elevation changes for around here and DAMN!!!!!!!  they graveled that one too!!!!!!   My tax dollars at work.  I don't remember them consulting me on this at all!

"Gravel"

i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off
and i pushed through the screen door
and i stood out on the porch
thinking fight, fight, fight
at all costs,
but instead i let you in,
just like i've always done
and i sat you down and offered you a beer
and across the kitchen table
i fired several rounds,
but you were still sitting here
when the smoke cleared.
and you came crawling back
to say that you wanna
make good in the end

and oh, oh,
let me count the ways
that i abhor you,
and you were never a good lay
and you were never a good friend
but, oh, oh, what else can i say...
i adore you

all i need is my leather,
one t-shirt and two socks,
i'll keep my hands warm
in your pockets
and we can use the engine block,
and we'll ride out to California
with my arms around your chest,
and i'll pretend that this is real
'cuz this is what i like best,
and you've been juggling two women
like a stupid circus clown
telling us both we are the one
and maybe you can keep me from ever being happy,
but you're not gonna stop me from having fun.
so let's go before i change my mind
i'll leave the luggage of all your lives behind
'cuz i am bigger than everything that came before

and you were never very kind,
and you let me way down every time
but oh, oh, oh what can i say...
i adore you

i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off

Are your favorite roads either county highway J by Mt. Horeb or county highway W up by Baraboo?  cause those have been soaked in gravel.
