its the same as riding your bike through a beach.

and I finally found a good route to get downtown quick. my time today was around an hour and a 1/2. I'm aiming for around hour or so by summer vacation.
It's been like that since last spring when the Don crik overflowed. You should have seen the washed out bridge and all the deadwood piled up. Must have been quite a sight in flood. There is some sand in spots but it's a reasonably easy pick through. I generally just use the south end and climb out of Willket to Leslie (i.e. pothole boulevard).

I may be heading out to the Westend for a bit so if anyone wants to hook up downtownish, post.
