Thanksgiving morning ride, starting from the parking lot at Carmel Mountain Rd. Taking the normal route to John's house, where I met him. We headed up to the top of Pomerado Rd, then took Miramar Rd down to Eastgate Mall, using it to get over to Genesee Ave. Over to Torrey Pines Rd, and on that little climb I did OK. Over to the nice downhill, which was fun. Then over to El Camino Real via Carmel Valley Rd, heading to the 56 bike trail. I rode at John's pace until Carmel Valley Rd and beyond, just taking it easy to Camino del Sur. I pushed the pace a little bit on the climb up to Black Mountain Rd, then we rode together to Rancho Penasquitos Rd. By this time, I was considering turning off before riding all the way back to John's house, but I stayed with it. On Poway Rd to Springhurst, then up that little climb (it was tougher and slower the second time). Back to the car, after a short break and a soda, using the normal route, felt fine all the way to the end of the ride.
