Ride with Joe, Jim, and John on an overcast morning, heading out across the pedestrian bridge to BVP. Up to get to Citrus Ave off the 78, then we used this road to head over to El Norte Pkwy. I needed to drop a credit card off for Emily while she was pet sitting, so we turned right off El Norte Pkwy onto Vista Verde Way. This road gets steep, so it was work to get to the top, where we turned left onto Vista Ave and headed down to Canyon Grove Dr, turning right and then another right onto Malone Ct. There are some nice houses in this neighborhood. From here, we headed back to Vista Ave and took it down to Broadway, turning left and riding back over to El Norte Pkwy. Headed west out toward Borden Rd, at which point it started to get misty. As we continued, it got wetter and wetter, until I decided it was time to start heading back. So we turned on Mulberry Dr and used it to get to Mission Rd. Took this back into Escondido, going through several stretches of drizzle. Seemed like it let up a bit when we got onto Centre City Pkwy, but by the time we got to Citracado Pkwy to ride back toward Kit Carson Park via El Ku Ave, it was really heavy. Back behind the mall to BVP and then back home using the pedestrian bridge and the normal way back. I was pretty fast on the two little climbs back home, and the drizzle let up at the end, when we had smoothies.
