Carlsbad Bike Ride

It was ten miles from home in Vista to the beach in Carlsbad Village. Going there I took Melrose Rd to Palomar Airport Rd to Carlsbad Blvd. On the way back I took Tamarack to El Camino Real to Faraday Ave to Melrose Rd. Each way took about one hour. The beach was wonderful as seen in the picture. The bike lane is next to the cars lanes so it was a bit scary. The roads are not flat at all. I did not mind going up hill but down hill is more difficult and dangerous. Overall the trip is quite enjoyable and the best reward of course is the beach itself, but along the road there are wonderful scenes as well. No doubt the weather is fantastic, just like the mediterranean climate. It reminds me of Egypt's North Coast.
