Finally a sunny day! I put my trunks on again and rode down to dog beach. (The Pier was right out – it was a sunny Saturday during summer vacation AND they are building for the Hurley US Open right now. It’s madness down there!) There was some wind chop wave merging, but if you caught the right corner you could left for a long time. The trouble I was having was that this was my third session inside of 24 hours and my arms were pleading with me to rest. “Not now, damn it!” I told my arms. But they won out. I started making all the classic tired mistakes – not making the paddle, fumbling the pop-up and so on. Still managed a few decent rides though before I completely noodled out. Plus I got to see all the happy dogs running around dog beach – always a heart warmer.
