Time trial ride with John and Jim, not wearing a jacket and going in regular bike shorts. It was the right choice, as I wasn't really cold on the ride. I rode really fast up to Jim's house, but I couldn't sustain my high initial pace all the way to the top. I rode a little faster in the initial part of the ride than I had done in previous time trials. I slowed it down once we got onto RB Rd and stayed with the others until about halfway up to Pomerado Hospital, when I got a little separation from them. Then we rode basically together down to Poway Rd, where John and I rode out ahead. A little more separation on Sabre Springs Pkwy and Rancho Carmel Dr, particularly on the latter near the post office, where I kept up a steady but not scorching pace. I pushed it a little bit on the last couple of little climbs and had enough near the end to make a decent push down W Bernardo Dr before turning onto Duenda Rd. Finished in 1:01:00, which is the fastest time I've logged in awhile.
Total mileage = 18.0 mi
Total elevation gain = 1050'
