Does anybody have any thoughts on which countries have the best surfaced roads? This is prompted by a holiday in Ireland which has some great flat cycling roads and some super mountain passes with magnificent views, but definitely not the best surfaced roads.
I'm just back from the west coast of Ireland and found the standard of road surfaces to be on a par with the UK. There were one or two minor roads which had been badly top dressed with stones large enough to be uncomfortable on touring bike but most roads were fine. Iain
