Ride from home over the the Park n Ride off Via Rancho Pkwy, where I met Joe. We rode Del Lago/Beethoven to Bear Valley Pkwy, turned left, then right onto San Pasqual Rd. Followed this to Old Milky Way, took a right, and connected up to the 78. Up to this point in the ride and heading east, we had a favoring tailwind, and it really helped us push the pace on the 78. Motored out to Bandy Canyon Rd, then started riding into the wind, which wasn't quite as fun. The climb up Bandy Canyon was tough (particularly the first part as the grade really ramps up), but I made it okay and rode down to ride the last third or so with Joe. Headed over to Highland Valley Rd and down to Pomerado, where we took a left and rode up to Rancho Bernardo Rd. Joe was slowing up by this time, so we took it easy. Right, then over to W. Bernardo Dr, where we headed to Duenda and parted ways. Felt strong really all the way through the ride, although my pace was slower than usual.
Average speed = 16.7 mph. Total mileage = 25.4 mi.
