Most of the gravel-surfaced roads around here are (so far) maintained in pretty good shape, with the occasional bare spot or bermed area on a curve the only real defects you see. But I was on a privately-owned gravel road last weekend which gets heavy use by the public and it was awful. In my 4WD it would have literally been more comfortable to go cross country. The washboarding was so severe that at any speed you chose to drive, something in the vehicle would resonate (including your tooth fillings at certain speeds!) I was real glad to get off that one. The county has never had the money to purchase the road and maintain it properly. It is the only access to popular BLM land.
