07-25-2020 Ride

Solo ride over to Dave's house, taking the freeway to get there a little sooner.  Met up with him and Jim, and we headed over Brotherton Rd to Miller Ave, and then to Citracado Pkwy, heading under the freeway and continuing on Gamble Ln.  Turned left onto Bernardo Ave, which has a little climb in it, then it turns into Felicita Ln and then Via Loma Vista.  This took us to Via Rancho Pkwy, where we turned right and rode up to Del Dios, turning right and staying on Valley Pkwy until it turned into 2nd Ave, then onto Grand Ave to get to Ash St.  Here we hooked up with the 78 and rode it out to Bandy Canyon Rd.  The downhill into the San Pasqual Valley was fun.  Just after the turn, Jim got a flat, so we stopped while he fixed it, then continued on, taking the Bandy Canyon grade out of the valley.  It was slow but not so bad.  Then onto Highland Valley Rd and back to Pomerado Rd.  On the winding downhill section, Dave took a right turn too fast and almost lost it but stayed up, fortunately.  From Pomerado we rode back over the freeway and to Dave's house via the route behind the mall.  Home the normal way from there.  I felt fine at the end, not super tired but definitely aware that I had put some miles in.

Avg speed = 15.2 mph. Total mileage = 38.4 mi
