| Route 197. Bonsall via Camino Del Rey. 38 miles, 2158 ft el, 55 ft/mi. This is a classic. The worst part of the ride is Deer Springs at mile 30-32, which is a fast descent on a busy highway with limited shoulder. Claim the lane and ride in the center or right tire track, which makes drivers intentionally pass by crossing the center line. This works better than hugging the edge line, which encourages drivers to squeeze by with inches to spare regardless of oncoming traffic.
