Rode over to Dave's house for the time trial route. Jim and John were supposed to ride, but Jim backed out. I tried to keep my pace the same as John's, not pushing the pace. On the stretches with any significant grade, he slowed down, and I wasn't always aware of it until I had gotten out in front. I would slow down and catch up with him. On the little climb up to Poway Rd, I kept it mild in effort. We generally stayed together for the rest of the ride, with me slowing down when I got out ahead. I think John was tired from the previous day's ride. Finished in 56:04.
