Cattlegrids
-
Anyone crossed them? It made the nose dip a bit and the board wanted to take off. So annoying when there's several only a few hundred metres/yards apart.

@theadman I take those at an angle to try and stop the whole tire getting devoured in the gaps. Some of them are way too wide though and I don’t even try.

@lia I suppose not all cattle grids were created equal. These were flat and gaps on these were no threat to the wheel and were narrow in width with a fence either side, I figured if I need to bail I could jump onto the fence to prevent the foot fiasco. I kinda chickened out imagining that on the way back though.
This is on my latest ride on the app. I just knew that city would be good for OW. -
@theadman interesting side note. Go up to the peak District and the motorway slip roads have cattle grids on them.
