That was awesome! Out at 8am and finished at 11am. Had it for an hour to myself which was nice. Powered up on 6.0. Best Saturday Ive had for a while.

Good to see you out there Alex. And I think I even stayed in front of Merritt on a run. Nice!

Was a great day ...here's some footage from yesterday morning. Still getting used to using the GoPro. Need to work on the angle and stopping droplets drying on the lens to get more usable footage.
