I couldn't take it any longer!

Some may say I'm crazy, but, I went out tonight and cleaned a large amout of gravel off of my turn onto the on ramp that  I take every morning to work.
It is a negitive camber turn and it needs to be clean.



You can see by the light colored area that it was a fairly large area to be covered with gravel.

Anyone else ever go out and take things into your own hands on public roads like this ?
Or do I suffer from a certain disorder?

nothing that extreme, I've just shifted road kill, moved logs of wood , large rocks, dodged a truck load of chairs ect

I've cut overgrown bushes from trails for MTB riding and same for public roads where the trees are hanging low enough to impact my line.  Your disorder is captured in your obsession with building a killer FJ...  I think you're in good company.

I have never done this but if the need arose why wouldn't you. Better than falling down.

 I spent most of a weekend sweeping gravel off a poker run route that my wife's riding group was setting up. They had over 200 bikes show up for that event, and no crashes! Keep up the good work.

Riders helping riders. It's the right thing to do.  Good job Leon.  Just going out on a limb here but I bet your not a Liberal.

My self and a few others kicked pinecones out of the corner after Klavdy went down. On a popular road for bikes North of me someone had intentionally poured motor oil in a corner. Some time after that someone else use White spray paint on the road before and after the corner to warn riders of "OIL!!!".

  What kind of a Douche Bag pours oil in a corner like that?  Is that a California thing?

Diesel fuel has got to be the worst...... i've had a couple of two wheel drifts because of the stuff and its impossible to see it on the road.

people are insane i tell ya!

I've come across glycol antifreeze in a corner, dumped by a RV with a broken radiator hose.

The heads up driver saved our asses when he flagged us down, before we went charging into the corner. A Nice guy.

That shit was slick slick.....

Pat is right, cant use this racing sport bike.

I remember that day, it was raining too a perfect combination for a wreck. The fuel most likely came from a tractor, there were alot of rainbows on the roads in that area of western Va. that day..

I guess so, I have seen this on another road closer to the coast, similar paint on the road warning riders. Another road had a large hand made sign reading "Rice rockets!!! This is not your race track, SLOW DOWN". If I see it again I might stop for a picture...
