I seem to miss the crews doing work that ArlingtonRider finds. Must have something to do with the pre-sunup commutes.
While the conditions for laying asphalt were a little off (most asphalt has begun its winter hibernation), we got a path much better than the one we had. Not sure it is creamy but pretty good. It is certainly frustrating that what could have been done all at once took three discrete paving sessions.
Kudos to the Fed Highway Admin for their follow through (with encouragement from the riders on this site).
