Looking at New Routes

Because some of the footpaths are undesirable to ride on I have decided to look for more/different routes to Unley. This afternoon I went up to Goodwood Road and down a straight road half way to Unley Road. The footpaths were not as bad - still some were lifted by trees. But that was not even half way to Unley. I think I have figured out a couple of side-streets that are ok now. It is nice having all the trees in Unley as it keeps the birds in the area but their roots are a problem for footpaths and roads, giving the council much unnessecary maintenance to do on roads  and footpaths. 


This one is quite thin (4 pavers wide) but at least I can go on the dirt near the tree. Other's I have come across have a huge lump where the tree roots have pushed it upwards. Apart from a couple trees being close to the boundaries this footpath is ok.


This is not a footpath but the lifted pavers are very similar to what can be found  on some.


Saw this on Friday 11th December and there is no way I am even going to try and navigate it.


Hopefully I can find a route soon that will not wear my scooter out before I have paid it off.
Don't know if it is because I have done something or the uneven ground but something is loose/rattling on my scooter already - Hope to find what it is soon so I can get it repaired
