Re: Snake pass shut due to landslide
Yeah, it's annoying as it's a road I regularly use, and was so much better after the recent resurfacing
 Just have to enjoy the other great roads around here

Re: Snake pass shut due to landslide
Sometimes a closed road can make a better playground, if you can ride up to the closed bit and back... My favourite stretch of road got closed at one end last year and there's only 2 houses on it above the closure, so it was essentially an empty road. Ace!

Re: Snake pass shut due to landslide
Went up there today and Snake is still closed from the lights at Ladybower - but, on a bike you can slip round the barrier...
