08-21-2021 Ride

Solo ride over to the Sabre Springs Transit Station, up Aguamiel Rd and over RB Rd to Bernardo Center Dr.  It was misty when I started, and it just got wetter and wetter, never actually raining but really heavy mist and drizzle sporadically throughout the ride.  Over Bernardo Heights Pkwy (kept it above 10 mph) to Paseo Lucido and then taking the backwards time trial route to meet Blair and John.  We decided to ride in the weather, so we headed back to Carmel Mountain Rd, turning on Stoney Peak Dr and then left on World Trade Dr to get over to Twin Peaks Rd.  Up to Espola Rd, where we turned left and I was able to keep it above 10 mph on the climb up to the high school.  Then it was down to Pomerado Rd, where we ended up turning left and following the time trial route back to the starting point.  I kept thinking the drizzle would let up but it never did.  I rode back to Pomerado Rd via Ted Williams Pkwy with John, then he continued straight and I turned left to head back home, not pushing the pace by this time.  Home via RB Rd to W Bernardo Dr and then the normal route.  This was a wet, dirty ride, was really glad to be done with it.

Avg speed = 16.0 mph. Total mileage = 35.5 mi
Avg heartrate = 121 bpm
Total elevation gain = 2160'
