Right on a corner, only one lane and that very bumpy, quite thick loose metal and a reverse camber. The bike skidded and slid and jumped around and got through safely, no thanks to the rider I suspect. Anyone been that way may be able to be more specific as to where it is.

Thanks for the heads up.

I, like Marmoot am in total disbelief of the condition, not only a washout and gravel but bumps??? What the???

Loneliness???? you talk about loneliness????
I was stranded there for 3 hours once without any form of transportation or communication (cellphone etc).......that felt like 3 days......

I think that was when I met the farmer's daughter.......but I am now not sure which one...........
