Quote: You hit the "key" point to my toil. What is the appropriate way to introduce W to a frequency which is excessively beyond anything she is used to?
I think you may have to be "satisfied" for a while on a plateau considerably short of the summit. Since the M was autonomous for so long, she will be pedalling desparately to keep up, but she has not been "in training" as you have. Nonetheless, progress is progress, and I hope you are loudly cheering her efforts. No, it is not enough (for you), (yet), and maybe she'll never quite get there, but maybe there can be a "happy medium". Dunno. Wish I did. However, IMHO you are WAY ahead of where I'm at. I'm rootin' for ya!
