Page loading speed on Road.cc

I run a pretty fast i7 gaming speed PC and have a 30Mbps broadband download speed. So why do Road.cc pages take so long to load, frequently so long that I get a 504 overtime error. It is only Road.cc pages that do this, other sites are fine

2 ad blockers and Ghostery for good measure. 

Today however load speed is just about respectable.

Don't forget that if you're not using an ad blocker every page you load is calling out to a half dozen ad servers.

It's been dreadful for a few months now. Almost as if the web server is an i386 with a 56K modem.

It's been happening a little more to merecently.

Seems to sort itself out after a bit.

I am getting that data thingy popping up a lot less, so that's good.

I've had various 50_ errors recently.
We have a super fast connection at work and it is still slow even with various script s blocked.
I assume the site is "daisy chained" in some fashion and the sites/servers it relies on have a very slow link somewhere.
It was also down completely a week or 2 ago.
