Solo ride after work, leaving from home and riding down to the park, then up Pomerado Rd to Ted Williams Pkwy. I had done a kettlebell workout on the previous day, and my lower back and hamstrings were really sore. It wasn't too much of a problem during the ride, although I didn't have the full leg drive I would normally expect. I headed up Ted Williams Pkwy, a little slow on the little climbs, then turned right on Rancho Carmel Dr, where I rode pretty well. Right on Carmel Mountain Rd and over to Camino del Norte, taking this over to Bernardo Center Dr. Then home following the normal route from work, with the exception of taking W Bernardo Dr down to Aguamiel and back up the final little climb. The weather was really fine, with just a little wind to contend with.
