Yesterday afternoon. Lots of gravel roads in Eastern Ontario…
Last week, donuts with Attacklad screaming in the back and the Offspring on the radio.
I love how all the Canadians are chiming in with some variation on ‘recently’.
All the time.
I chose the road less traveled.
About a month. It is not a daily experience for me. But I live in Colorado. And if you are going to take full advantage of the outdoor opportunities Colorado offers, you are going to have leave the pavement.
Milling up old asphalt and replacing it with new is very popular here, and one can buy the milling byproduct, which is like asphalt crumbles, if you will. We put some on our driveway. It does “set up” very nicely because it has a lot of fines in it. My only complaint is that the individual ‘rocks’ are very light and they are easy to get picked up in your tire treads, or track into the house.
I drive them all the time here in Panama. Many of the roads off the main roads are gravel (if you’re lucky; mud if you’re not). I last drove on one probably a few weeks ago.
What do you consider a substantial distance? The first three miles of my daily drive is county maintained gravel road. The other 17 are paved. We like snow because it fills in the pot holes.
I drive on unpaved roads several times a week. To reach some of my clients, I have to ford a creek or two in my car. Fun times!
Our driveway is a quarter mile long. It is gravel/dirt, and full of potholes. So to answer the question, I drive on a gravel/dirt “road” roughly twice per day.
A lot of the county roads around here are gravel. There’s a lot of land still used for farming and ranching, and they’re cheaper to maintain.
For some folks between Winnipeg and Portage la Prairie, the question would be: “When was the last time you boated down a gravel road?”
Three weeks. If I succeed in moving to Colorado, it’ll be more often.
I like going places you can only get to in a Jeep.
I live on one… ::: shrug ::::
looks outside at dirt road
Um…yeah. Though it’s a very short dirt road. There are much longer ones around, I live in the middle of nowhere.
I drive dirt and gravel roads every day.
5 hours ago. Do it all the time.
Everytime I leave my house. 2 miles on dirt (not gravel) to the gravel road, continue on gravel 1 1/2 miles to pavement.
Today and every day. Your poll assumes that everyone on this board lives on a paved road; that dirt roads are, at best, a thing of the past
You need to get out past the 'burbs now and again.
Recently. While I live in suburbia, I particpate in the sport of Rally. Most events are on gravel roads. They can be hell on suspension, but they are a lot of fun.
