05-16-2013 Ride

Solo ride after work, leaving from the parking lot at work and heading over to Bernardo Center Dr, then onto Camino del Norte.  The wind was coming in from the west, which generally helped throughout the ride. I turned on Carmel Mountain Rd and then onto Rancho Carmel Dr, heading over to Sabre Springs Pkwy and Poway Rd.  The Poway Rd section was fast, and I got onto Pomerado Rd via Oak Knoll Rd.  The wind was definitely helping me along on most of Pomerado Rd, with a little bit of a shift as I got closer to I-15.  I was slower  from here on back to work, going uphill and having a little bit of a cross breeze to work against. Throughout this ride, it felt like I was hitting every light, which was a bit frustrating.  On the plus side, the temperature was close to ideal.

Avg speed =18.5 mph. Total mileage = 19.6 mi
Avg heartrate = 144 bpm
Total elevation gain = 1060'
