Loudwaters: Welcome to the forum. I agree with 10 Wheels. I had lower back problems three years ago. Needed a special chair for my desk and couldn't sit in a standard office chair for more than an hour without a lot of discomfort. Now that I ride daily on my road bike my back pain is gone. Maybe it's in my mind. I think my mom was a hypochondriac so there is always that to consider.......
