I found having the back lane paved to be a mixed blessing. Since it was paved there is a lot more traffic that uses it and people drive much faster. Yeah, when it was gravel it would be a pothole and muddy mess, but at least people were forced to drive reasonably. Now it is a free-for-all and with all the young kids who ride their bicycles back there I think it is fairly dangerous.
