Ride, starting from home and heading around Poblado to Matinal and up to RB Rd. Rode up to Via del Campo, then over to W Bernardo Dr. Took this over to Bernardo Heights Pkwy, with the Paseo Lucido spur, then over to Pomerado Rd and Stone Canyon Rd. This road, if you know it, can be ridden pretty aggressively, with the toughest section being just before it tees into Martincoat Rd. Over to Espola Rd, then up to Old Coach Rd for a little more mileage. Down Espola to Alondra Dr, where I met up with Dave and Jim. Jim hadn't been riding for a long time, since he'd been on vacation. We headed up Pomerado Rd to Ted Williams Pkwy, then over to the 56 Bike Trail. I didn't really push the pace throughout the ride, since I was content to get the miles in without too much suffering. We headed down to El Camino Real, then took this south and over to San Dieguito Rd. Up the Three Witches climb, I took it pretty easy, especially on the last section. We turned right on Camino del Sur and rode over to Carmel Valley Rd, then up and over to Dove Canyon Rd. By this point, Jim was hurting and slowed down. He cramped up on this last little climb, so we slowed down the overall pace more. Over to RB Rd, then up and down. The downhill section has truly awful pavement in the bike lane. We hit every light going through RB. Back to Dave's house, where I left them and headed home going right on W Bernardo Dr and up Aguamiel. On this last little climb, I was still feeling good, with no muscle twinges, just some tiredness.
