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
Total elevation gain = 2800'
