Title: cadianda road
Post by: hamilton on April 10, 2008, 14:34:42 PM

How bad does the road have to get, before any repairs are done, does it get repaired at a certain time each year??? Or have we got to complain about it first. perhaps we could rename it the Gouda road.
Anybody got any ideas how we can get the repairs done urgently???

Hi Tony. They tend to patch it up about 4 times a year,normally after the rainy season. They told me they would be making urgent repairs today.I think its rather fun spinning the car from side to side to avoid the biggest ones.LOL

We went up there last august for the first time in our new car.  The road was in good nick,  Lots of nice gravel  On the way there we had to stop to let a car pass and we coldn't get moving again, LOL! car dug itself into a nice big hole as the gravel shifted. Husband had to use his hands to scoop out a groove for us to get out of the pickle we were in.  Needless to say it hasn't happened since.  First rule is, don't stop unless you have to.  Second rule is if you do stop, go carefully on accelerator.  DOH!
