I rode through and adhoc routed around sand and gravel roads in France.
They could've been avoided with more detailed map study. What Frank is saying is that the classifications further east are even worse. They also do not have streetview and the satellite images do not always show up rough/non-roads.
It's not so clear cut as you head east. The one that got a lot of people is the 'old main road' connecting Skopje to the rest of Macedonia. It has the status of an A road but it starts off as cobbles then becomes gradually rougher as you head south.
