Leadville Spring Conditions: Part 1

Leadville is in the transition from Winter to Spring. Its a love-hate time of year for me, the loving part because I can ride or ski in the same day, the hate part because of the funky conditions that I end up doing said activities in.

This postcard comes from the work bike commute. Its the same route as Ive been doing all winter, but it hasn't got boring because the conditions have always been a little randomly extreme.

The other day I rode down the route and at mile 4 or so came across big road closed signs. Due to my extensive experience in Department of Transportation issues I decided to continue. Needless to say the road is more river and mud than road and the trusty Surly single-speed is looking a little worse for wear.
