I travel quite a bit to auto auctions for my employer to buy used cars. On my way back form Milwaukee today I was thinking how great it will be when the weather warms and I can ride to an auction or two. That got me to thinking about the condition of some patches of road here in Wisconsin and other states I sometimes travel through.
There are long stretches of interstate where the pavement is degenerating into long deep trenches on each side of the road and down the middle between lanes. Some of these trenches and potholes are 8 inches deep. That would be a disaster on a motorcycle. I know that these will be patched eventually, but will take a while to do it. These trenches will drastically reduce our ability to manuever and change lanes.
PLEASE be careful during our early spring rides and watchout for bad sections of road. We sure don't want see anymore "rider down" posts.
