Frequent asphalt overlays makes cycling dangerous

Wheels of Happiness

                             See the great difference in road elevation;  it is dangerous for two wheeled vehicle

The road going to Antipolo city is now again being overlaid with fresh coat of asphalt, 3 inches at least.  For those who are unwary, they are likely to crash and have injuries.  I was  victim of this.  You fall of the tall fresh asphalt and try to reclimb not knowing its 3 to inches taller.  Your rear end could not handle this and then you fall.

I thought that the proper procedure was to scrape off old asphalt and then overlay.

I notice too that there is frequent overlay.  Sometime the previous overlay was not more than  6 months old
