Standard road conditions !

I like to ride my bike after work before I head home. The problem is where I work has some of the worst roads you'll find in Massachusetts. I work in the center of town and there is not an easy way out to the surrounding towns. But now what just happened they completely repaved, put in new sidewalks, and new brick crosswalks on the road by work. I now have a 1/2 mile of Paradise before I reach the wheel eating roads.

For a lot of your riding, it looks like the road shoulder is cleaner than your chosen course down the lane.

I think posting the same post in 3 different forum sections is against the rules.

It certainly is annoying and for all I know there may be more.
