Hi Human_POwered Woww! So many names for the same thing. I had a hard time deciding on wich name to use for the video. Yes! It is a dangerous place to ride on. We have a lots of falls also. Nice to have you on board!
In Denmark our Motorways are normally scraped down at intervals because of wear, and less often our bikepasses. In my town we have one with trees to the side, below which the roots has made it into what is named a "Pukkel Piste" if using skies!
This kind of road , if have water 💦 flooded, if easy fall down , because was happening at Sunday morning, I fall down, lucky I bike very slow speed, I get mud on hand , leg , shoulder n my bike too
Funny the things we find commonality in that are so mundane. I kind of thought asphalt might not be common down there because it gets so much hotter! Seeing all your beautiful paved surfaces such as those pretty fish along the beach (Something that probably wouldn't hold up here very well because of the severe freeze-thaw cycle and the need to salt surfaces to reduce ice). Most pedestrian walkways and sidewalks are just basic concrete here as well. By the way, in the situation in this video, here we would say "they grind the surface" before putting on new asphalt. Or maybe "the surface has been ground in preparation for resurfacing." I've actually seen the piece of equipment they do this with and it's kind of interesting to see a piece of infrastructure like that, that is integral but just not something most people know about 😁 Never thought about it causing an issue with cycling, thanks. 👌
Hi NoZenith I had such a hard time to find a translation for " Frizar a Pista", so many different translations that it was hard to choose one. Thaks for the tip. I aways appreciate. 👍🏻😊 About the sidewalks, some of them are made with concrete, and some are made with Portuguese stones. Wich makes beautiful drownings. They are nice and permeable, but bit slippery when wet. I might do a video about all the different drawings on the sidewalk beaches. Nice drawings 👍🏻😊
@@ChrisbyBike That would be a lovely video! I have no idea what people would say other places I just realized that you are practicing your have such a good handle on the language but here in the American Midwest people often call asphalt paving "tarpack" as well. I believe this might be a modification of an older form of similar paving called tarmac And people just modified it and said something they understood because it looked kinda like like tar 😆. It's not at all accurate but I guess you could call it a regional colloquialism. Just things I've noticed, so I can imagine all the translations you probably had to sift through 😅
Hi NoZenith I've found 3 different names. But I guess every country (or even state) might have a different name for it. About the Portugese stones video, I'll have to study more about it 👍🏻😊
Thanks Chris. Have a great weekend.
Hi Brian Jones
I'm glad you like it!
Nice to have you on board!
In US we call this grind and overlay; very common here too. The lip between the grooves and old paved surfaces is a wipeout hazard for sure. Good tip!

Hi Finn Carl Bomholt Sørensen
Yes, the new Meyer is fixing all the bikepaths in Rio de Janeiro.
And making some new ones.

Hi Leong akin Heng
It is very tricky to ride on this type of road .
Glad you didn't get hurt.
Nice to have you on board!
