Phil (ascentale)@cainmark asks:
Q5. What do you do if a route you planned is suddenly closed for repairs and no detour is marked?

Bob Jonkman#BikeNite A5: Usually detours are not a big deal. When I'm commuting there are plenty of other streets.
But if I'm out for a recreational ride on country roads a detour could add several kilometres to the ride! So maybe I'll take another route altogether.
Once, with a friend, we ignored the "Detour for Road Work" sign, and headed to where they had just finished laying fresh asphalt. They let us be the very first to use the new road surface. Smoothest ride ever!
