Just come back from Bradwell.....
I love that stretch that runs from Latchingdon to Bradwell power station. I got about half way down doing 80mph when yep... The road turns to loose gravel. This is the same as the ipswich road and hatfield peveral. What the hell is going on??? The was one "SLOW" sign less then 100 yeards round a blind bend into the gravel. Surely the councils are obliged to warn us that we are about to ride into a bloody gravel pit!

Apparently its cheaper to pay out for any accidents than it is to repair the roads correctly :(

Your probably right but then i suppose they are obliged to expect you to ride at the speed limit too ;) :D

Give them a call and complain otherwise nothing will get done about it :)

I was riding just over... the speed limit at that point was national. Id love to see someone do them bends at 60 on a sports bike! :laugh1 I think I will call them up and have a winge!

Yes I must admit that is one good road from Latchingdon to Bradwell, the best bit is when you come into Steeple, them quick successions of bends are superb.

We did see you at your favourite bend last night, we gave you a couple of bib bibs but the look on your faces was................who the f**k is that :laugh1
