Just come back for a blast around the Chilterns. Planning to phone the District Council tomorrow - why do these idiots scatter loose chippings on roads and then not even post warning signs? Bloody deadly on the bike...

Ive come across this cheap chippings road surface loads of times in Dorset , no warning signs , bank the bike over in to a bend then leave said bend with the kwack on opposite lock nearly lowsiding the bike wich would really p155 me off
and if i was to crash it would be speed related

get on to them and let them have both barrels

Not to mention when they have just laid it with tar or on a hot day and it sticks to the undertray / swingarm etc etc.
