Go and see a sports physio and get an assessment of the problem.
I don't think cracking noises are an issue IIRC from what my consultant told me - swelling and/or locking up is.

as CP, says, go see a physio, could be tight hamstrings related to spinning, or something outside of the knee area!!

Smokin Joe, look up crepitus and you'll see that it is often noisy but harmless. I take Omega 3 oils which seem to help my joints as well as my cholesterol levels for some reason. I click and crack like anything, especially after sitting or sleeping in one position for too long.
If you are still feeling the grating though, despite the lack of pain or swelling, you really should get a good sports specialist to take a good look at the knees. What seems minor now and only occasional may be the beginning of something nasty and more drastic if left without remedial measures for too long. The season is probably over now for you or are you on the ESOB as well? If not why not get seen to now and then you'll be fit and ready for next season

Knee pain is the worst! I suffer from it as well, i spoke to a doctor friend of mine about this the other week whilst we were jogging. He advised cod liver oil based on personal experience...i'm going to give it a go!

Linds, as far as I am aware, it simply provides compression and supports the patella and so reduces the stress on the patella tendon. (info from FIL when hubby had such a problem a while ago) , He used tape though rather than a strap.

Agenterre, I keep reading your signature as 'Moriarty' and not 'Mortality' . My mother told me he was just a passing phase.
Smokin Joe, glad the knees OK, enjoy the C2C.

Hells Bells, Little difference in my case ... I confess that came to me here one evening reading some bollox about protecting your kids from the evils of the world, sanctity of one's own space, other stuff which had nothing to do with giving life a good ripping .... just back off boat so somewhat less sober than most here would be accustomed to ....... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I was having a similar pain once and what really helped me was taking as much rest as possible. I did miss some of the best skiing opportunities, but its important to take all your time to heal up.

I ended up having surgery on my knee due to bursitis (years of ballet turn-out abuse). Made no difference at all due to bent knee / weightbearing position whilst skiing. My ortho surgeon's advice was to keep the joint mobile generally and strengthen the surrounding muscles & ligaments. I tend to wear a tubigrip and neoprene support, seems to help and keep swelling down. Of course, ibuprofen washed down with beer also assists.

I find having sex in a misionary position helps me forget about knee problems for a couple of minutes. But my wife wont come to the snow.
good luck with it!

Do you run with a heel first gait, if you do this places more strain on your joints. Try altering your gait and running ball of your foot or middle foot first, it reduces the stress on joints in that most of the stress is taken up by the calf.

For knee pain you apply something and rest for same days till you feel you are OK.
