Solo ride in the afternoon after church, on a cloudy day with little spits of rain occasionally. Headed through the neighborhood to RB Rd, then out to Camino del Sur. Down San Dieguito Rd and around to El Camino Real. I kept my pace above 11 mph for nearly all of this little climb, even though I was generally taking it easy on the ride. Then it was down to the 56 bike trail and up to Carmel Valley Rd. The wind helped me here, so I had a decent ride back to Camino del Sur, slowing down for the next little climb up to and beyond Black Mountain Rd. Back home via Dove Canyon Rd to RB Rd and down to W Bernardo Dr. This was a nice little tune-up ride where I just wanted to exercise my muscles and get my heart pumping.
