OMG. This thread is just a shadow of its former self. Five hours between posts would be just unheard of.

As Dandy Don used to sing:
Turnout the lights
the party’s over
they say that all
good things must end
call it the night
the party’s over
and tomorrow starts the same old thing again.

I hate fresh chipseal. Especially around here because they usually don’t sweep the loose gravel off. It’s really hazardous for awhile until the loose pebbles are gone.

It's still the debbile. until it has worn smooth then it's ok. of course then they need to relay the chip and it's back to being the debbil.

I like the route posted by @DougRNS better TBH. More direct.
