Thread: Road bike in Grenada

I start GSP in a few weeks so I won't be in Grenada for another year, but I wanted to know about the condition of roads there. I think I'm a little pessimistic after coming from two years in the Peace Corps in Zambia where you couldn't really get too far on a road bike. It was a combination of the paved roads being pooh pooh, the rest of the roads being gravel, and the drivers not giving cyclists an inch.

So any idea on how much of the island I might get to see on a road bike? What are the chances I get nailed by a car?
