The roller came back

We have been keeping you updated with the building of the new road. The top bit was sealed (albeit with a thin layer that is wearing out quickly) and then the money ran out so we were told that it was going to be a rocks/shingle/dirt mix for the rest. This had been bought in and we thought the job was finished. The road was really rough and unpleasant to ride on if your bike has no suspension. However, this week the roller came back with a few more trucks of dirt and has made it slightly smoother, although I am glad that my bike shorts are coming out from NZ next week.
Check out our roller


When they had nearly finished the upper section of the road, they in the middle of the monsoon, dug up the lower part. Motorbikes/buses/trucks etc continue to use this road, it is a bit of a rollercoaster and is most uncomfortable in a car and I cycle around it. It isn't as obvious with the rain as it is filling up the the ruts but the bus that is coming I can assure you was bouncing around wildly.
