It is easier to post on the right diagonal

Paintlover · 08-26-2004, 09:43 AM

I have noticed this for a while. When I am out on a 'road ride' posting, I am always on the right (not left) diagonal! It doesn't matter if I am riding Lou Lou, Red, or granny, so it is obviously my fault. Why on earth am I doing this? I usually (If I don't catch myself) drop my right hip (my left side is stronger so my muscles automatically bunch together). Is this why?

When you say 'right', do you mean 'the opposite of left' or 'correct'??? LOL. Sorry, I'm tired and I need these things spelled out to understand...

I always pick up the diagonal as if I were tracking tot he left. I suddenly just realized that I don't know if that's the right diagonal because you rise with the right side, or the left diagonal because you're tracking left...oh well, find something new I don't know every day. I think it's because I learned to ride on an off the track tb, and going left was his stronger direction. We didn't do as much work to the right and when we did, he moved kind of crooked.

Then again, I have a tendency to drop my right hip and shoulder when I ride, and that probably affects it too.

What? Did I miss something?

Paintlover · 08-26-2004, 09:51 AM

nope, just in response to anarithil's question. I post on the 'right', not left, diagonal

Oh, I couldn't tell the difference.

LOL, sorry for the confusion I caused. I knew I would do that somehow today... Heehee.
