Ride from home over to Dave's for the time trial loop with him and John. I kept it at a pretty even pace at the beginning, staying with the others, including slowing down on the gradual climb up Espola to the high school. At the steeper climbing section, I hung on Dave's wheel, but it was a challenge. Fast going down Poway Rd, mainly because we hit most of the lights. I pulled up the last stretch on this road before the turn onto Sabre Springs Pkwy, then waited again for the others to catch up. Once again, I hung on Dave's wheel up this section. I led up much of the Ted Williams Pkwy section with Dave hanging on, then we all three raced to the top of the hill on Pomerado Rd by the hospital. Dave and I took off after the crest and motored back to his house. Finished in 54:20, which was okay for me given by long layoff from riding this route. On the way home, I took a longer loop to add another mile and some climbing.
Total mileage = 24.46 mi.
Average heartrate = 155 bpm.
