7-24-2011 Ride

Time trial ride with Dave. Throughout the ride, I was pushing the pace, not really letting off at all. I really went fast up the short grade to Poway Rd and was at this point in probably my fastest split ever. Down Poway Rd, we started out fast and caught all of the lights, but I felt I was slower after crossing Pomerado Rd. On Sabre Springs Pkwy, I made good although not great time, and I finished this section near record pace. Heading up Ted Williams Pkwy, I had another slow flat. After fixing the flat, it took me some time to get back in the groove, so I don't feel like I really made good time on this section. The Pomerado section was pretty good, I slowed down near the top but that was because I was pretty much going 100%. I outpaced Dave to the top, but he caught me about halfway from his house and gave me a great draft. I finished up strong, ending in 51:45.

Total mileage = 23.1 mi
Total elevation gain = 820'
