Solo ride over to the 4S Target starting point, riding by Gideon's house to see if he was getting ready, no sign of him. Then it was through the 4S Ranch neighborhood to the start. Perse was there, but he wasn't riding, only brought bagels and coffee, which was very nice. Rob led this ride, so I was the sweeper. On this ride were: Rob, Zac, his friend Keedon, Audrey, Andy, Eric, Cheng, Jed, Kamal, Jamil, Nel, and Fritz. We headed down Camino del Sur to the 56 bike path, and I hung back to ride with Andy, who was feeling slow after his century ride last weekend. It had been kinda cold at the house when I left, but it warmed up fairly quickly. Down to El Camino Real, and it cooled down on the stretches of the path by the creek. We headed up to Del Mar Heights, and Eric's rear tire was flatting, so I stopped with him to check it out. He ended up putting air into it, which helped but wasn't the necessary fix. Then it was over and down to San Dieguito Rd, where a smaller group of us had a fairly fast pace line to get to the service station in Fairbanks Ranch for the first break. Then it was over to El Apajo and up to Via de la Valle, where I rode near the back with Nel, not realizing that there were others behind us. We all caught up and took the Stud Loop over to Paseo Delicias, then it was on to the Del Dios climb. Audrey, Zac, Keedon, and Jed were ahead of me, with Audrey and Keedon really setting a fast pace. We rode down and waited at Rancho Dr for the others to catch up, then we took this road over to Via Rancho Pkwy. On that last little climb, I hung close to Zac and did okay. Then it was up and down to the mall, stopping for a brief break by one of the gas stations before heading over using the pedestrian bridge. I had to get ready for a work cookout at our house on Monday, so I peeled off from the rest of the group at the turn into our neighborhood. Nothing special about this ride, was slower than I would normally have been if not sweeping.
