I rode in a Big Loop through Mission Gorge, Santee, and El Cajon. Here we see the author on the Fr. J. Serra Trail looking (through the camera) at South Fortuna, and marveling that at one time he was clambering around some of them rocks up there looking for a certain geocache.
I took Prospect to avoid all the Santee/Mission Gorge Road death-hassle. I good plan, until I found they are STILL working on Prospect over by the airport. The detour guy let me along the construction area, on the sidewalk (radio his fellow guy down the road), which was VERY nice, but I had to be VERY careful. But I made it.
I rode through El Cajon looking for various caches, and not finding the. Except for this one, I found this one easily, and it was a very pretty spot, not far from the lake. ; )
I finished up the ride by going down the main drag for a half-mile so as to add up to an additional mile by the distance I got home, and hence be EXACTLY at twenty-five miles for the day. Except I was three-hundredths short so I rode down the block a couple of house and back. Perfect!
The odometer reads 12,745 miles at the end of the day. Somebody write that down.
