10-21-2011 Ride

Solo ride from home on a Friday I took off, as we flew up to Berkeley to visit the girls.  Headed out Via Rancho Pkwy, and that first climb was a real workout for me.  Especially in the early stages of this ride, I didn't feel very strong.  Took Del Dios Hwy into Rancho Santa Fe, then through and down to Solana Beach, where I took the Coast Hwy down through Del Mar.  Headed back on the 56 bike trail, and here's where I started feeling better.  Made decent time on the entire bike trail section, and connected onto Ted Williams Pkwy, which I took up to Pomerado Rd.  From here, the route home was the normal one down to the freeway and around by the park.  I felt good at the end, winded but not sore or cramped.

Avg speed = 17.8 mph. Total mileage = 45.1 mi
Avg heartrate = 150 bpm
Total elevation gain = 1760'
