06-28-2017 Run

Run in the morning while staying in Rehovot at the Leonardo Boutique Hotel.  Took a route that eventually led me by the site where I will be working for a couple of years, soon.  Relatively flat route.  I didn't have my sunglasses, so it was a little tough when I was heading into the sun.

Total distance = 2.55 mi

06-17-2017 Ride

Posted long after this ride.  Started by riding up to Jim's house, so I'm guessing he rode as well.  We headed over Luz Pl to Cabela Dr and then to Matinal Rd.  Then RB Rd to Camino del Sur and down to Carmel Valley Rd, turning right and taking it to Rancho Santa Fe Farms Rd.  We dropped down this steep descent to San Dieguito Rd, taking it over to El Apajo and Via de Santa Fe.  To Calzada del Bosque, climbing up to Rambla de Las Flores to get over to La Granada.  This was a hilly route!  Back into Rancho Santa Fe, turning there and heading up to the Del Dios climb.  Rode up to Via Rancho Pkwy, then climbing up and down to the freeway.  Across the freeway and back to Jim's house via W Bernardo Dr and Duenda Rd before heading home.

Avg speed = 15.6 mph. Total mileage = 35.0 mi

Total elevation gain = 2750'

06-10-2017 Ride

Well, this was a really challenging ride for only being 47 mi.  Started from Carmel Mountain Ranch and rode Rancho Carmel Dr and Sabre Springs Pkwy over to Springbrook Dr and then up to John's house the normal way, able to keep it above 10 mph on the little climb but with an effort.  Around this time it got misty.  Met up with John, by this time it was more of a light drizzle.  We rode in and out of this kind of wet the entire ride, and it was miserable at times, just bearable others.  We rode back down to Poway Rd, then took Pomerado Rd to its top (a real workout for me) and then down to Kearny Villa Rd.  It was raining pretty good by this time.  Stayed on this road until we turned left onto Aero Dr and took it up to Santo Rd.  Left there and over to Tierrasanta Blvd, downhill for quite a while until we turned left onto Colina Dorada Dr, which has a really steep little stretch that flattens out after about half a mile, with another half mile of less steep climbing.  Left onto Calle de Vida and then right on Rueda Dr to get to Clairemont Mesa Blvd near its end.  We turned left and headed back over I-15, turning right onto Chesapeake Dr to get to Ruffin Rd and then Kearny Villa Rd.  Back up the Pomerado Rd climb, and I was as slow as I've been at the top in a long time, just no drive in my legs.  No cramping, just tired.  Back to John's house the normal way via the Angelique St route.  I kept going when I got there after a brief pause, and it was slow back to the car.  This was not a great ride.

Avg speed = 16.2 mph. Total mileage = 46.7 mi

06-03-2017 Ride

Solo ride, nobody else wanted to get out on Saturday morning.  Headed through the neighborhood, keeping my pace above 10 mph on the climb up to RB Rd.  Took it over to Dove Canyon Rd and then down to Carmel Valley Rd.  Up the little climbs, then left onto Black Mountain Rd.  Down to the 56 bike trail, which I took down to El Camino Real.  Up to Del Mar Heights, there was another, faster rider who outpaced me and caused me to put in a bigger effort than I might have otherwise.  With lights, I got closer to him right before the drop down into the flats, where his steady pace proved too much for me to keep up.  Over to San Dieguito Rd, taking it over and up to Camino del Sur.  Left here, then right onto Paseo del Sur.  Over to Del Sur Ridge Rd and then right onto Lone Quail Rd and back to Dove Canyon Rd.  I wanted a few extra miles, so I turned right onto Camino del Norte and took it to Paseo Lucido.  I was starting to slow down by this time.  To Bernardo Heights Pkwy, then over to Bernardo Center Dr.  Back home via RB Rd to W Bernardo Dr and then Aguamiel Rd.

Later in the day, I rototilled the backyard to get it ready for new grass the following Monday, so I was pretty tired by the end of the afternoon.

Avg speed = 16.9 mph. Total mileage = 37.8 mi
