deluca67 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 I hit a pot hole on Friday that ended up costing me $400 bucks. It cracked my aluminum rim. So, if you heading up to the Falls and are taking the Robert Moses Parkway watch out. It's looks like a mine field.
inkman Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 The weather seems to be really tearing up the roads this year.
wjag Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 Every driver has that same clenched reaction to squarely hitting a pothole. Kind of like ewww!!
RayFinkle Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 About 10 years ago on Halloween night, I ran over an open man hole. Some jackass apparently thought stealing a man hole cover would be funny. Me, I didn't find it so funny.
K-9 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 Ah yes. The roads of winter in WNY. Where the streets are huge craters interspersed with thin strips of material known as asphalt. The ONLY thing I don't miss about Buffalo after 21 years in exile. You have my sympathies, DeLuca. On the bright side, it could have been far worse than rim damage. GO SABRES!!!
Bmwolf21 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 The weather seems to be really tearing up the roads this year. You're not kidding. There are couple roads near my place that look like they were shelled by mortar rounds...

The thing was so huge I couldn't avoid it. If I were to hit straight on my tire would have been ripped right off.
