02-09-2014 Rides

Time trial ride from home with John, riding up to Jim's house and meeting him there.  My legs were tired from the previous day's ride, and I was only looking to get the miles in.  Fairly steady pace throughout, staying with the others, mainly John when the pace or incline picked up.  Not that fast on Sabre Springs Pkwy/Rancho Carmel Dr, where I was content to ride at a comfortable pace and stand on the pedals but not bear down.  Finished in 1:01:44.

Total mileage = 17.9 mi
Average heartrate = 131 bpm
Total elevation gain = 1060'

After church, I rode home via the 78.  Took Juniper down to Sunset and then to BVP, heading over to San Pasqual Rd and then to Old Milky Way.  My legs were really tired, and I had no real drive during the entire ride.  Got onto the 78 and rode okay, but I slowed down once I turned onto Bandy Canyon Rd and it was a real slog getting up the hill, very slow.  I took it easy on Highland Valley Rd going back and made it up the last two climbs, again slowly.  This probably wasn't a very helpful ride for my overall fitness.

Avg speed = 16.7 mph. Total mileage = 21.4 mi
Average heartrate = 131 bpm
Total elevation gain = 1090'
