01-09-2021 Ride
Ride from home with John and Jim. I was originally intending to make it relatively short and easy, and I was only half successful. We headed through the neighborhood to RB Rd, then to Camino San Bernardo. Over to Dove Canyon Rd from there, then onto Carmel Valley Rd and up the little climbs. Waited for the others at the top, then we turned left onto Black Mountain Rd and took it into Mira Mesa, turning left onto Westview Pkwy. This part of the ride was quite steep for a little section, then it flattened out a little bit up to Mira Mesa Blvd. We headed past but had to turn around then the road dead-ended. Used Mira Mesa Blvd to get to Scripps Ranch Blvd, and took it up past Lake Miramar to Spring Canyon Rd. This stretch has a 7-9% grade, and it was definitely a workout. Right onto Spring Canyon, which had a more gentle grade up to the top of Pomerado Rd. This was a nice little stretch of road. Then we stayed on Pomerado Rd down into and through Poway. There was a group of other riders that provided some challenge to catch up with and pass. Then it was down from the hospital to RB Rd, where I felt my rear derailleur cable break when I tried to shift. So I did the last stretch on RB Rd to W Bernardo Dr to Duenda Rd in my highest rear gear, still able to switch between upper and lower front chainrings. Smoothies at Jim's house before heading home. Short distance, but the elevation gain was fairly significant.
