We kicked our series of five Swamdo training rides with the Fallbrook Ride. Now we’re on #2!
For our second training ride, we’ll head north Through Carlsbad, then turn east and ride through Vista to Lilac, Circle R, Champagne, and Jesmond Dene… well-loved roads we’ve been missing a bunch! For a restroom stop, take a short detour to the AM/PM in Bonsall. For food and water, the camp store at the bottom of Circle R is great, just before you head up Champagne (Their restrooms are not open tot he public). Lost Abbey opens at 12 PM for more fun after the ride 🍻
Bathrooms at Lost Abbey will open at 7:30 AM
The route is 56 miles/4,059

The focus of these rides is endurance and climbing, not so much speed. They are designed to get us in shape for hills, long hills. Cool weather is not in the forecast this time of year, so plan on the necessary hydration and nutrition. Please be ready to take care of yourself and be sure to load the route to your GPS device. All training rides start at Lost Abbey in Vista.
NOTES:
This is a ride for road bikes only (no aero, e- or mountain bikes).
We regroup at key points, but these are not no-drop rides.
