Woke up early (<>), then got ready to put some extra miles in before meeting up with Jim and Dave for the time trial route. I rode through the neighborhood, using the Capilla Rd section, then took the longer route through the 4S Ranch neighborhood, including taking Paseo de Linda over to Camino San Thomas, up to the top, then back down to Campania Ave to get over to Four Gee Rd, which I also took to the top before turning around and riding back to Camino del Sur. Back to RB Rd, then up and down to Matinal Rd, taking it to Cabela Dr, then Luz Pl to Duenda Rd. I took Corazon Pl to its end before turning around and riding to meet Jim at his house. Dave had a sore knee, so he didn't end up riding with us. From there, we rode the normal time trial route. Jim was faster than he had been in a while, and I didn't slow down for him too much. But my legs were definitely tired and sore from the previous day's riding and walking, so I wasn't fast at all. I did include a little backtracking on the route by Ted Williams Pkwy, in an unsuccessful attempt to add enough miles to get to 30 for the day. I again forgot to wear my HR band.
Avg speed = 15.1 mph. Total mileage = 28.9 mi
Avg power = 123 W. Weighted avg power = 151 W
Total elevation gain = 1800'
Avg heartrate = 111 bpm (Fitbit)
Once we got back to Jim's house, he made us pumpkin banana smoothies, which were really delicious. I had missed my time window to go to church with Ann, so I took my time and had a restful bit watching some Olympics basketball and taking a short nap. After lunch, I fiddled with my front disc brake, trying the align the pads so they won't rub against the rotor (I was only partly successful, there is still just a little bit of rubbing). In the mid-afternoon, we drove over to Lake Poway, parked just off Espola Rd, and walked up to Lake Poway Park for a light picnic and concert by Britain's Finest, a Beatles tribute band. We had seen them last summer at the park, but this year they were noticeably better, and the crowd was more into it. So it was a good time. They played for almost an hour and a half, then we walked back to the car and drove home for a quiet evening.
