Anyone else see how much dirt, glass and crud is on the 52 bike path from Santo to Mast? If you don't wreck you will probably flat. If your bike path is that bad report it to the city on this link.

I've seen a street sweeper up there a grand total of Once. If enough people submit service reqs maybe they will take care of it. Thanks!

Last time I did this, they called and the lady told me "Oh, you aren't allowed to ride a bike on the 52!"

Honestly I've always figured it would be best to just hit it with 5 guys and push brooms.

They do sweep it, once in a blue moon.

Yea i ride up 52 a couple times a week on my commute and it is terrible, I tried a set of road tires on my 29er and got two flat's in one day so went back to running my knobby's with stans and seems like i hear a new leak every other week no matter how much i try to avoid debris.

I see a guy with long hair on his bike picking stuff up once in a while and would totally be in to having a clean up day up there.
