The day started with gorgeous weather and light winds. After cycling for 39 miles and with 8 miles to go to my first checkpoint, disaster struck. My left knee popped/crunched as I was ascending the last small hill before what would have been a downhill coast to North Bend. Alas, this journey has sadly come to a sudden end. To say it’s disappointing is the understatement of the year. I had been planning this trip for a long time and put a lot of work into it. I leave you with a picture of the start of the trip.
