That was interesting.

Went over to Crieff via A977, A823, A822.

Lots of loose crap in the middle of the lane, on bends around the Yetts O Muckhart stretch, one big patch of crud across the whole road nearer to Glen Devon.

Still all went well, best part was it was dry most of the way back, although it was really windy. Tucked down on the tank, not too much of a problem.

The bike got covered in crud, it was almost grey when i got back.

So i looked like a right dope out there in the rain with a bucket and sponge.

Good day though, like the Z6's and got best part 70 miles on them.

About ready for a nice cup of tea now :D

Cheers

EDIT: Also anyone near Forrest Mill A977, watchout on the southbound carriageway on the bend at the open cast site, there's a layer of crud all over from the trucks pulling out there. NASTY

Don't suppose you've got any photos of the.........filth?

The filth has been cleansed!!

It's just looking very wet now.

That's a point, who do you phone to register such filth on the road?

Last thing I want is some poor sod taking a tumble, if I can help it.

Cheers

No worries. In fact you spurred me into action and I reported the junction of Langside Road and Victoria Road in Glasgow while I was at it. Not so much pot-holed as cratered, you could take cover in some of them.

Ticked the box for 'feedback', let's see what happens...
