Back on after 2 weeks off due to family business (my parents') taking over my life for a while. My knee had been bad enough to not want to walk on it. Riding today cleared it right up. Got off a stop early and did a 7.5 mile leg #4 rather than a 3 miler. So about 15 miles today.
Should have had the studs on on the way in. Sketchy wet bridge-- was taking on condensation from the river beneath. Slowed WAY down for it.
