It took us one and a half hours to reach the village from Ma. Although the road up to Gu is paved, from then on it is brick-laid and in very bad shape and even our motorbikes found it difficult to navigate. At one point we had to park our motorbikes on roadside, and took a muddy byroad to get to the village on foot.

Does the passage sound natural and grammatically correct?
