milky4130 Posted November 12, 2023 Share I don't know the condition and never heard of any damage but a group went up there today, most of it is tar and the very top concrete, Edited November 12, 2023 by milky4130 Spelling Mamil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mamil Posted November 13, 2023 Share Ja it is tar, wanted to check that the tar hasn't washed away a la the Glen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christovdw Posted November 13, 2023 Share Mate of mine went up in the past week - parts of the road are completely destroyed. Pic is a screenshot from @ArnieKitshoff's Strava. Presume it will take a while before it's rideable. Mamil and ChrisF 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW that’s is hectic, seems like they hike a bike that section because Arnie and the other group from Sunday still went to the top.🔝 Jbr and christovdw 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christovdw Posted November 13, 2023 Share Pretty sure you can walk past. Not sure what the rest of the road looks like, but that bit is toast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christovdw Posted November 13, 2023 Share To be fair... that bit is pretty close to the summit - some walking may have been done before that already 😜 gemmerbal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that KOM is safe for a long time unless another light weight pro rocks up on his road bike and give it a smash but Simon Andreassen is the new holder on his MTB.
