That stuff is often used on MUPs and such, as it is low-maintenance. But I have noticed that, especially in wet and shady areas, wet moss or lichen grows on it, and that stuff is sliiick. I know a couple riders who have crashed hard on that stuff on the path at a local state park.
Best to hit those bridges straight-on, don't turn and don't brake on them. Moderate speed.
