Ride with John from his house up to the top of Pomerado, then down to Kearny Villa Rd. Went to Clairemont Mesa, where we took a left and headed into Tierrasanta. Turned on Santo Rd and took this over to Aero Dr, where we took a right. Over to Linda Vista Dr, which we took by USD and down to Napa, a short stretch over to Morena. This road is nice, it parallels I-5 for awhile. Then we turned right on Jutland, which has a very steep short section just past the turn. It continues to climb after that but not as steeply. Turned right onto Luna, then an immediate left onto Regents Pkwy, which we took over to Governor Dr. Governor connects into Genesee, which we took over to Torrey Pines Rd and down to the coast. This section of the ride was pretty hilly, with not much in the way of flats. Rode back up the bike trail all the way to Sabre Springs Pkwy, to avoid the construction on Poway Rd. Took this road all the way to Springhurst and back to John's house. This is a good 50-mile ride, with a lot of challenge in the middle part and the last little climb back to his house to end it. The weather was cold at the beginning but warmed up enough to ride with a long-sleeve jersey and tights. Again, I felt good throughout, with tired legs at the end but not much soreness and no cramping.
Total mileage = 52.1 mi
Total elevation gain = 1920'
