No problems
Alex,
Last week we were in Bolivia (La Paz - Oruro - Potosi - Villazon) & rode to within 25km of where 16 people were killed in miners riots only 2 weeks earlier(Huanuni, south of Oruro). Apparently the police were on to it with 600 riot police! There were no issues with road blocks. Although things can change quickly, I would thing if you stick to the more main routes you won´t have a problem. We heard lots of stories of theft in La Paz, but I thinks its pretty normal (perhaps a bit hyped up) you just need to be careful.
Cheers,
Cords
