I know what it's like to pinch a disc. OUCH!!! and more like a constant... AUGH!!! for weeks until it heals. Get well. The bike will miss you. Or, is it the other way around?
LOL --- yes, it's an understatment on my part. The bike and I are starting to become co-dependent

.Thanks.
I'm just
trying to be patient. But not riding for 4 weeks is testing me. My back has a history (surgery in '96) and the MRI is showing a herniation and a few other "bulging" discs --- I predict some "core" exercises in my near future. I'll get some more input tomorrow after seeing a neurosurgeon and then start a new thread (before I hijack this one).
And to Swaco -- salty sweat, plus loose, flapping clothing sounds like 100 miles of chafing. Not fun.
