Ride with John from his house. Nobody else showed up. I was recovering from a cold and didn't know how that would work out. It was pretty chilly at the start, but we headed uphill to the top of Pomerado Rd, so that warmed me up. Down the hill and out Miramar Rd to Genesee Rd, where we took a left and did the rolling hills up and down. The last one wasn't as bad as I had remembered it. Turned left on Linda Vista and took it north to Aero Dr, which we used to hop over to Kearny Mesa Blvd, which parallels the 163. This road merges into Kearny Villa Rd, and from there it was the normal route back to the top of Pomerado Rd. We added a little section of climbing by going all the way down Springbrook to Sabre Springs Pkwy, then climbing back up to Mountain Pass Rd on Springhurst. It was a shorter route, and I ended up feeling okay, with just some coughing and a lot of spitting up mucus. I felt more cleaned out at the end.
