| Apr 25 at 6:30 | comment | added | Michael | I wonder how bad unpaved roads actually were. Farming dirt tracks like this one are actually quite nice to ride even with narrow, bald tyres and no suspension: amliebstenreisen.at/bilder/2018/03/ulr-2.jpg Of course it’s a whole different story when it rains and they turn into this: static.zoonar.de/img/www_repository3/a4/34/0c/… | |

However, there are similar resaons, such as roads were not made for easy rolling, population densities were lower, and social structure didn't have a mobile gentry without horses or palanquin bearers. | |
