Thanks for your thoughts, Blueberry!

I ride the mixte to work because it lets me sit upright on a different part of my sit bones, and, since my commute is short, I can ride a brooks, and I'm not on it long enough to cause problems. But it's true that I might need more of a rest. I'm not very good at that

I'm wondering if this is a technique problem, at least in part. Like, maybe I stay seated too much at the end of a ride when I'm tired? Or maybe it's a fit issue?

Thanks,
Gillian
