slipped while trying to get started on an uphill and landed really hard on the saddle. it was stupid. you can laugh.

sort of feels like this is what's happening. it kind of spasms whenever i move the wrong way.

sort of. most of the time it doesn't really hurt, but when i move the wrong way (e.g. try to sprint), it spasms really suddenly and sharply. it's all but impossible to ride through it. but yeah, i know what you mean.

i'll rest for a few days and see how it goes.
