We've had a tremendous amount of rain this past year and the roads are starting to give it up. Lots of potholes and debris. I always tend to ride back enough to avoid these issues. I have a buddy who likes to ride in the center of the lane. He says this gives him two ways to go in case of trouble. I've always stayed out of the center thinking glass, tacks, metal strips, etc. collect there. Just saying keep an eye out.................
