At one point on the ride we cross a long suspension bridge with a "lake" under it. This is the view off the left side of the bridge. I thought the cracked dirt that led to green algae was beautiful. Sorry the fence is in the way - sometimes my capture-while-riding shots don't turn out perfectly...
The right side of the bridge - water leads to mud.
Our ride ended at Gordy's Bakery. If you find yourself in Encinitas, go check this place out. Awesome treats, and Gordy is a long-time runner!
