The price we pay for good roads

I like to ride on roads with good surfaces. But do I hate it when I'm out riding my favorite roads and start running into "one lane closed", "flagman ahead", "loose gravel", "chip and seal", etc.

During my 200 mile ride on the T100 today, I made at least 3 U turns to avoid riding over this sticky, tarry, gravelly stuff. A couple of times I was into it before I could take evasive action. Oh, well, WD40 to the rescue.

Must be a lot of elections coming up for county road commissioners here in the Buckeye State ..... road resurfacing is in overdrive.

Still - a great ride combined with beautiful weather and a really sweet running bike. (She turned 24,000 today).
