Actually yes, agreed. It's better than it used to be. Several years ago (it might have been 2006 when sections were washed out), they actually fixed a lot of it, and fixed it the right way. They stripped the base down below grade, removed all the boulders, added several inches of good draining gravel, and then repaved.

Unfotunately, they only did it in sections rather than the whole length. So you still have some sections that are good and some bad. But I agree, it is much better than it used to be.

I haven't been on it since October...
