PA 233 oil & chips please

Postby klwbmw » Sun Jun 20, 2010 8:35 pm

Just rode Pa 233 today. From PA 997 to US 30 the road is being spot treated with "oil & chips", no relation to fish n' chips, most of it is on the shoulders but there are some sections in the mikddle and center lane. :wink:

North of US 30 is fresh new pavement! :D

That stuff is so nasty. I grew to hate it riding bicycles, but it's even worse on a motorcycle. By now, though, it should be tamped down. I'll swing by that way over the weekend to confirm.
