The paved roads I ride in NJ are holding up pretty well; most of them have been repaved in the last few years, so there are no major flaws to start spreading. But the gravel ones have gone from bad all the way through worse and are now in the barely passable range. Once the sun hits it and the surface melts a little, it's nasty treacherous. My commute includes a half mile stretch that I've been avoiding for a couple weeks now... adding about a mile to my ride... no big deal.

In NYC it's a different story. Even newly repaved streets have potholes spreading rapidly. In heavy traffic drivers don't have room to maneuver around the potholes, so every car that goes by takes another tiny little chunk out. Mean streets, you know! But still, nothing to quit riding over....
