That's just dangerous. See what happens when there are no safety cylinders on a bike!

Amazing to see the front tyre transverse the joint between the blacktop and painted ripple strip, and then climb the angle change without any loss of traction.
The rear tyre can be seen to lose traction at the uneven point between the blacktop and ripple strip.
I reckon it would be best to keep tyres outa those areas.
