Anyway glad to see there is more fresh meat for the men in blue to make better odds for us.

Enjoy the cruising and plan ahead for potholeless roads.
The roads are in horrific shape! potholes the size of 356's!
It's like an autoX trying to avoid them all.

I've fantasized going around with a bright orange spray can to mark potholes. Then I never go out and do it. I always wonder if the police would play I'm in trouble for marking "their" roads.
