04-29-2014 Ride

Ride to yoga after missing a weekend of riding (camping up by Lake Cuyamaca).  It was hot with Santa Ana winds that I had to generally ride into.  I had also donated blood on the previous Wednesday, and I've found that it takes me awhile to recover my endurance after doing this.  All of that contributed to a slow ride for me.  I took the normal BVP route.  Felt fine, just slow with no real push in my legs or ability to sustain a high level of effort.  It was fun riding into Escondido after turning off BVP because the wind was at my back and really brisk.

Avg speed = 16 mph. Total mileage = 10.7 mi
Avg heartrate = 145 bpm
Total elevation gain = 730'
