Default Roads - the good and the ugly

Just been on hols to a mates house in Spain and then on a business trip to the Ukraine

Spain
Road from Alicante to Alcoy about 14 hairpin bends up hill on dry smooth tarmac. Lovely, wish I had the bike with me

Ukraine
Did 140 dead straight miles at max 50 miles per hour on roads that had potholes on every square foot of them. To cap it all the company at the end of it was 63 hectartes of C@%p

To be honest though I feel sorry for them. The split up of the Russian state left large areas of the country destitute. Though there was a Masarati dealer in the main city so not every one a pauper

I wasn't sad to fly out.
