Q3. Is there a bit of road that you just hate cycling on?

For me, a short stretch of southbound Mearns Rd at Mearns Kirk. Slight rise, poor surface, from Eaglesham Rd to the roundabout:

Just horrible for a fraction of a minute.

Meanwhile, I just love Mearns Rd up by Hazelden, in either direction:

Do you have a bit of road you just hate? An attempt to explain this unusual phenomenon

Maybe it's a patch of ungodly-sized potholes like in the image above, or perhaps something a lot more innocuous that irritates you specifically, for no major reason. Our tech editor shares the bits of road he least looks forward to

@ascentale @drgeraint @bikenite A2. There are plenty of those here in Waterloo Region, but I can almost always avoid them if I’m using @CyclingGuide

Off the top of my head, though, cycling to Herrle’s farm market is unpleasant on the last stretch, as it’s located on an 80km/h country road that often has lots of cars on it.
