Rocking hips taking up the slack?
Probably, but the big issue for me was that I never felt a bit of discomfortuntil I finished my last ride, then it only felt a little "tight."The next day I worked 12 hours walking on a concrete floor. The next morning after that Ihad a Flexeril for breakfast, call off work, and called my doctor. I knew I washurt...BAD.

The thousand miles of training rides didn't do it. The tour didn't do it. The 83 mile ride didn't do it. I think it was a time bomb, a cumulative injury that finally surfaced after a long ride. Motrin is now my friend, but it still hurts.

I have a tour planned for October focusing on easy miles and enjoying riding with a friend, and November will find me on a cross state ride...Florida isn't that wide. Still, a pretty ambitious plan considering how slowly I have healed. Ride smart and stay healthy is my plan right now.

Best regards to all
Bob
