Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default Would you ride this road?

This is just crazy, the fact that they have no choice but to drive on it too, shocking.

Better than it was - used to be 2-way - now (or was last time I looked) 1 way (switches am/pm) - less trucks disappearing over the edge ( though it's possible I'm remembering this wrong & it was being talked about
being made 1 way)



Edit: Mine of worthless information me.

I'd give it a go on a push bike. Maybe not on a proper bike though

How many people died making that road however many years ago it was built???
