This is as far as I was when I reached 1000 miles back in August. I had decided early on in the year to not push the miles too much this year due to a knee injury from last October 2015 that was not healing well. I have since been to the doctor (many times) and we have found this to be a torn meniscus on my left knee. Surgery was on Thursday November 17th. The doctors said I will likely be back to work on Dec 19th. But I am sure rehab will last much longer than that. Hopefully I will be back riding next spring! 👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽
