7-11-09 Ride

Ride with Dave. Started from my house and rode over to his place, then we headed up Pomerado to Scripps Poway Pkwy, then west until Black Mountain, where we took a right. On this long, gradual climb up Black Mountain, Dave lagged back somewhat, even though he was obviously in better riding shape than me. We turned left on Carmel Valley Rd, and Dave popped a couple of pain relievers to help a migraine he was getting. Turned on Camino del Sur, and I slowed down to keep with him. Followed this road to Camino del Norte, and Dave was feeling better by this time. Stayed on it until it turned into Twin Peaks, then took a left on Pomerado and headed back to Dave's house. I felt okay throughout the ride, just not in prime shape. I was glad I had requested a shorter ride, so I wouldn't feel so wiped out in the latter parts. Made it home okay, albeit fairly slowly.

Average speed = 17.3 mph. Total mileage = 33.3 mi.
