Today the temperature hit 62, it was sunny, and most of the snow was melting. I should an interesting tan in a couple of days.

The meltdown started early, but at noon there were still a few impressive patches of ice. One was about 30 feet long on a sloping part of the trail. Just put the feet out and glissaded on by that one.

There were a lot of riders out today in Minneapolis. Most of them going slow, swerving around puddles, and doing the splits on their bikes to keep their legs dry when a large puddle was unavoidable. In the western suburbs there were a lot of people walking on the trails making biking a lot like running a never ending obstacle course.

LOL - That's a great pic. Man, where the hell is the warm weather here in NE. We got up to the upper 30's. We still have ton's of snow - it really is the pits.
