Loose chippings here too. The roads are in a grim state with Romanian sized potholes everywhere. Council has slapped patches of tarmac in the holes without sealing any of the edges, and then put loose chippings down over the lot.
On one stretch of busy road a few miles away the road sweeper was sent down to clean up the loose stuff 24 hours after it was put down, so at least that piece of road is now navigable on two wheels. The road through our village however, has great deep ridges of the stuff everywhere. I'm just about to try and get the bike out through it.
