Default Re: Am i turning into a grumpy old man?

I know what yo mean about the surfacing mate its Kirklees's method of resurfacing.
Roll out some hot DBM sread chippings over it, give it a novetly roll and f'off leaving the cars to do the work for them. In about 4 weeks a road sweeper will come to clear up the crap still hanging about, many many roads in our area are in the same state currently.
Road from Coach and 6 up to Showcase cinema, also Birkenshaw Fire station down to Jnct26 of M62. Not fun riding at all, thought about giving them some **** myself because anything on 2 wheels might as well be riding on ice and nothing on 4 wheels seems to drive anything other than the normal speed limit (and above).

Andy there due to maintain the roads and repair. They quote safety at every possible turn so if the road is not safe for a cetrain set of users they have failed in their duty.
