Saturday morning ride with John. heading out through the neighborhood to RB Rd and taking it over to Camino del Sur. Then it was over to San Dieguito Rd and down into Fairbanks Ranch. We rode fairly quickly on the flats, trading leads over to El Camino Real and then onto Via de la Valle. We rode down to the coast and headed north to Lomas Santa Fe, taking it up into Rancho Santa Fe and eventually onto Del Dios Hwy. I would climb up the uphill sections and then wait for John to join up. I had a good stretch on the longest uphill section by the dam, benefiting from a steady tailwind that helped push me up the hill. John and I rode together over to the last climb by Via Rancho Pkwy, then home the normal way. I got ahead of him on Via Rancho Pkwy, but he led out across the freeway, and I couldn't catch up with him. I pushed the pace riding up the last couple of hills and finished pretty well.
Avg speed = 17.7 mph. Total mileage = 36.4 mi
