Solo ride from home, it was 45 deg at the start and I knew it would warm up, so I didn't wear a jacket. As a result, it was kinda chilly in the beginning. I headed over I-15 to BVP and rode it up to the 78, a little slow on that minor climb up BVP. Over to Citrus Ave, riding at a decent pace up this very gradual climb and staying on this road all the way to El Norte Pkwy. Down to Broadway, taking it over to Jesmond Dene Rd. I couldn't keep it above 10 mph on the last climb there, rode over to Centre City Pkwy and out to Deer Springs Rd. Down to the turn at Twin Oaks Valley Pkwy, where I decided to turn right and follow this road for the first time. I took it about 2.5 mi in, got to a crest, and turned around there to head back on Twin Oaks Valley Pkwy to Richmar Ave, getting over to Mission Rd via Marcos St and taking it to Las Posas Rd. Riding over to San Marcos Blvd and turning right there to get to Discovery St. I headed back into San Marcos, going by CSUSM and getting onto Barham Dr. Starting to slow down a little bit here. I rode over to Mission Rd and back into Escondido, taking the route via Tulip St to Valley Pkwy and Quince St. To 13th Ave and then onto Centre City Pkwy, then back home the normal way. I kept it above 10 mph on the hill before the park as well as the final little climb, which was a minor success.
