    No worries. Sounds like a rather sizable spill, truck forgot it's cap or something i suppose. Hopefully it's safer come the weekend.

    Don't think I'll risk it this weekend either, I've hit diesel on that road before not a nice feeling.
    When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

    I think I'll be on the road a couple of times this weekend. Assuming that if its the length of one side of the hill it won't have been cleaned up.

    Anyone know if its on the uphill or downhill side?

    ROFLMAO, nice one Skel. Bahahahahahaa.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I guess I meant "uphill or downhill lane"?

    Went over Rimas and back again today. Not to bad and not to many signs of diesel on the road. If it was wet, well thats a different story. Stock truck shit on featherston side near the bottom , but thats pretty normal over there unfortunately.
