The road from Bicharest to Rosiorii de Vede through Alexandria is spotless. I don't know about the county roads, but from experience they are very bad, although county roads in Teleorman tend to be good compared to other counties. About SIlistea Gumesti there was another topic on the forum: http://www.worldwar2.ro/forum/index.php?sh...978&hl=silistea

In Balaci turn right, once again, to Silistea Gumesti for 4 km. The road is good except, the last 4 km. The rail way for AB come from Balaci station. Of course, visit is "free". I am born here, on AB. I hope, this year, to make some pictures, whith amunition store (if I'll foud something today) in NE of AB. This post has been edited by lucian on March 27, 2008 11:13 pm

I suppose they will start pouring the asphalt after the foundation is done. It's like this all the way to Balaci. Better wait at least 6 months to let them finish it. The stretch through Dobrotesti is relatively OK for a county road(average number of holes). Arriving on county roads to Silistea-Gumesti from the East (see my previous post) is a bad idea as they are absolutely horrible until crossing into Teleorman, near Tatarasti. From Tatarasti to Silistea-Gumesti the road is great (recently laid down). My advice C-2, wait until autumn or take the Vitara.
