Gravel sucks

[uv23]

So I should have my refinished rims and new tires in a week or two but man, I'm scared to mess them up all over again on these roads. I've never seen so much gravel in my life! Any idea when they usually get swept? I saw one lonely truck out there last week but that was it. I wonder if there's a civic schedule somewhre online.

Not until may/june. I watch it like a hawk because of the bike.

Re: Gravel sucks

if the weather stays good it will be probably april

this city overdoes it for sure.. sand!!! not giant rocks from hell lol

the dumb part is if by chance it snows 12" tommorow its gonna cover up all the current gravel making it useless anyways..

even tho its +15 out lately the gravel is the reason i'm not driving my car.. i'm just too damn paranoid over rock chips anymore

I won't be running my wheels, the gravel will chip them up badly...

Re: Gravel sucks

No problems yet, no noticable change in condition of mine.....I just drive well driven roads, and real slow through parking lots...

Re: Gravel sucks

They have been sweeping on Glenmore, Barlow, and Deerfoot over the last week. It is not getting it all but helping to get ready for spring, but the residential action wont happen till May for sure.
