Just rode through it, my pants and bike are a mess. Might want to avoid until it gets tracked down. Thank you city of Saskatoon. /unimpressed.

You think that's bad . . . there's loose gravel and asphalt chunks on Casa Rio Drive, plus fresh horse poop.  Tongue

It sounds like the pothole puker struck again.

Thanks for the heads up, but you'll wear out your keyboard if you try to warn people of every bad repair and loose gravel patch that you come across in this city. There's just way too many and it changes by the hour.

Mckercher between 8th and taylor was hit with the pothole puker and gravel as well. BuellThumper is right.

Yeah it's true it's impossible to warn about every one, but it's frustrating when it's not just gravel but tar as well. The stuff doesn't just sit on the road but sticks to everything and flies all over the place. A patch of gravel here & there doesn't bother me, but you can't get around this stuff. I use my bike to go to work every day so I try to avoid roads that I know are that bad. Nothing like showing up to work covered in tar.  dunno
