Watch out for the road plate on Hollywood Crescent. It is at the last right hand turn just before the top of Ross Bay. Hopefully the Tuesday morning coffee-bound group did not run afoul.

Ya, I hit that thing at full speed this morning. My tire blew and I went sideways left - right into Sig!. Bounced nicely off him without either of us crashing then veered off the road. I went up on the sidewalk and along the white fence of the house there cause I could barely steer or brake! Good job on not going down after I cut you off and slammed into you Sig 8) You probaly kept me upright :D

It looks like I hit a wood wedge that they use with these plates.

When I hit that there were lights coming the other way - I worried I would have to run wide to avoid slipping (wet metal plates don't offer much grip). Turned out it was a motorcycle and I had enough room.
