I have been on roads like these not a 1000 miles from here :-) There were people who would throw us out in the middle of an afternoon visit when it started to rain on account of high likelihood of not making it out of their valley. The stuff sticks +++. I routinely spent over $12 pressure washing the truck. I have never seen roads like this on this continent... The worst was gravel roads with puddles, or beat up concrete roads. i Anyway, never invade Russia in the spring or after September. |

When I was in a trail riding club we used an unpaved turnpike built around 1804. It's said that in the winter when the swamps are frozen a snowmobile can follow marked trails and dirt roads the entire north-south length of New Hampshire, Mass to Canada. I've run rallys that went 100 miles in dirt and mud. jsw |

Around 1950, the schools were closed for a week+ at Easter and 2 or 3 weeks for spring break up; and if we were really lucky, these were not concurrent. Gerry :-)} London, Canada |
