    I can see me on the bike but not the track. As long as everyone else can see it, I know where we were (surprisingly).

    From Rt. 11 up to Highlands was fantastic; light traffic, predictable curves, great pavement, it was a really nice ride. I had never ridden that stretch before.

    We took in the views of the Duke Energy pumped storage facilities, Bad Creek and Jocassee.

    You can see the lower falls that feed into Bad Creek reservoir from here.

    I've been carrying a Kershaw folding knife for several years, it's been one of the best knives I've owned. I realized a while back that my riding pants would hook the pocket clip and cause the knife to fall down my pants leg, so after an early close call on this trip, I put the knife away for safe keeping.

    I spent the last four days looking for it and yesterday I started to consider replacements, as I was pretty sure it was lost for good.

    This morning I had an errant hair that needed trimming, so I got out my shaving kit where I keep my small scissors. When I went to put the scissors back, guess what was staring me in the face?
