The motorcycle club my dad is in, the Loch Lomond MCC, used to run a hill climb up it every September. We used to form part of a working party who'd go and clear the road the weekend, including digging new drainage ditches to try and keep the road surface free from surface water.
This was back in the late 1970s, but the surface was very rideable then.
