10.05 miles out to the PWC and back.  Temps in the low 50's...probably not too many of these mornings left until cold weather sets in!

Did a Mt Bike ride with Barry this afternoon.  We did the entire Crestline Loop around Scout Mountain.  2700' of gain on the ride up and then scary single track cut in to the side of the mountain on the back side.  12.2 miles.

I have been fighting with some pretty serious knee pain since mid August.

Going to take a few days off to try and heal a bit.
