Hey OBRAites!
I just got off the phone with the Portland Street Cleaning department
and they are working almost round the clock to get things swept up.
They have a graveyard shift and an 8-5 shift working to get it done.
The lady I spoke with was delightful and was very enthusiastic and
even
proud of the progress of her team.
Looks like a week or two more and we should be in good shape again.

Folks,
As long as we have the threat of ice/snow/frost/what-have-you, the
gravel will be on the road. We have been spolied the last two winters by
marvelous warm and dry off-season training. It looks like it is catching
up with us.
Ride on heavier tires and be prepared. That is about all we can do until
March or so.
Joe
