On the return leg of a weekend away ride, we came across some cattle grids which are STUFFED, they will swallow your front wheel and end your ride(at least). I don't have a GPS so cannot give the co-ordinates and the road is very secondary so cannot even give the road number, as you leave Summerset East going West you turn left on a road marked to Waterford, then later we turned right towards Pearston, on this road you will find these buggerd grids. You can go around the grids through a side gate. Only the grids with the concrete "grating" are affected, several of the strips have disintegrated completely and I saw at least 2 which cause serious trouble at any speed. All the metal ones where fine.

Please be careful guys, fortunately one of our party spotted them first and warned the others, they are a serious hazard.
