Hamilton-Kenilworth access traffic circle

**Mr Gone** · 07-08-2011, 06:54 PM

Up top of Ridge road where the Kenilworth access meets Concession street and Ridge Road there is some kind of spill in the inside lane when travelling west to east towards Ridge. I almost lowsided because of it, slippery as ****. Watch out, and take the outside lane!

Yes, downbound lane at the top of the Kenilworth Access. (miles from Ridge Rd)
It's been there for a couple weeks, in the left lane as you go around the circle at the top.
Avoidable? Yes. Stay away from the middle of that lane, or use the right lane as you go around!!

I slammed the truck thru it yesterday just to see what would happen - traction control kicked in.........beware.

Whew! I rode in this area this morning, just after 9. Fortunately, I was in the right lane, heading east when I entered the circle. I didn't notice anything. Came back up that access around 10ish. Ride was ok.

Thanks for the heads up anyway

I've been drifting my smart car and ruckus through this stuff all week.

i was going to post about this spot as well. I was riding through there on tuesday eve and i was leaned over pretty far (for me) and as i'm looking through the curve i see this shiny stuff ahead of me. In the sunlight it looked like it was still wet. no cars were around so i straightened out and stood the bike up as quick as i could. I didn't slip but it made my heart beat a little faster for a minute.
