Solo ride over lunch from work, heading over to Camino del Norte and taking it to Carmel Mountain Rd. I was feeling pretty good, it was one of those days where it always seemed like the wind was at my back. Over to Rancho Carmel Dr/Sabre Springs Pkwy and out to Poway Rd. I wasn't trying super hard to put in a big effort, but I was moving along pretty well. Down to Oak Knoll Rd and onto Pomerado Dr. Here, it seemed like the wind was really helping me, and I kept up a good pace all the way down to the freeway. Then it was slower as I climbed back to work. I slowed down more than I would have liked on the last climbing section, but otherwise I felt good about my effort.
