Post-session
M's yet again. Slow at first. Stumbled early on. Couldn't get it going. First wave: unhorsed on takeoff while paddling; second wave: stuck at top on takeoff while trying to stand. Etc.
But once I got loose and relaxed, I started doing very well. What's been happening is my arthritic hip really is tight and sore in the beginning, and it takes me about half an hour or several rides to get warmed up. Then again, at least I have two fully functioning arms (I don't know how she does it; how does she do it?).
It ended dismally as the sets got very infrequent and the conditions/form worsened. I think I had it at the best time, though, because two others joined me and by then it totally sucked.
