Solo ride, when it was relatively dark at the start, over to the Ted Williams Park n Ride, following the RB Rd and Bernardo Heights Pkwy route. Blair was getting his stuff ready when I arrived, and we started soon after. Just as we were leaving, Jim pulled up, it was a close call that we connected with him. Once gathered, we got onto the 56 bike trail and rode down to Camino del Sur. I started out not pushing the pace, to try and keep it manageable for the others. Over to San Dieguito Rd and down into the flats, where Jim was pushing a higher than normal pace. We rode to El Camino Real, turning right to get to Via de la Valle. Again slowing down a little, we took a left onto Jimmy Durante Blvd and rode over into Del Mar. Left on Carmel Valley Rd, taking it back to El Camino Real and then onto the 56 bike trail again. I rode with the others, dialing my pace back and only getting out a little bit ahead on the gradual climbs on the bike trail back to Camino del Sur. I worked a little harder on the short climb up to Black Mountain Rd, then it was pretty easy back to the meet-up spot, just that short little climb after Rancho Penasquitos Blvd. Blair did just fine on this ride, which was great. My ride back home was uneventful, taking the time trial route.
