Ow.
I threw out my back on the abs machine this morning at the gym after my ride in (don't ask me how...I have NO idea! :confused:).
I have a call in to my chiro. Meanwhile, I'll wash down lots of ibuprofen with my morning joe.

Hope you get your new rear wheel soon!Quote:

7rider, I threw out my back doing sit-ups. I guess an ab workout that goes a little too far is dangerous to the lower back. I sure am careful about my sit-ups now.
Eek, 7! :eek: Feel better soon.
The ride to work was surprisingly calm. Little wind, clear skies. Beautiful. The ride home was very wet and windy. It was kinda fun riding through puddles- until I got really cold. ;)
3 for 5 this week. Some days I just can't drag my butt outta bed in time to ride...
I rode all the way to the train station and realized that I didn't have my badge:o or train pass:( so I rode home. does that count as a commutte?
that is the funny thing - it is my upper back -my rhomboids that I pulled. My chiro was pretty surprised, to say the least ( until sh considered the source I guess! LOL)Quote:

The Doppler Radar showed a huge green blob over RI (meaning rain), but I looked outside, and it wasn't raining. I especially like commuting on Sundays, so rain or not, I was riding.
There wasn't a drop of rain, and in fact, the morning ride was mostly sunny. No other cyclists out. I'm guessing the forecast kept them in. I was so prepared to get wet, I wore a wool base layer, a wool jersey, a rain jacket, a cap with a visor under my helmet, and full finger gloves. Well, I did get a little wet--from sweat!
Fun ride. I rode my steel bike, which hasn't seen much action since Spring sprung. Felt so good.
Glad the forecast didn't scare you out of a ride!
sprinkling & thundering on the way home, just beat the hail!
Look where I parked today.

Cold, cold, cold!
It was about -3 C this morning - what happened to spring?:(
But, fast pedalling + higher gear = fastest commute I ever done!
I have an insulated coffee mug that fits perfectly in my water bottle cage; let me tell you that coffee sure hit the spot along the way.
nice photo Melalvai!
i had a lovely commute. It was light enough finally today that i rode in on the scary busy road. (and it wasn't very busy!!!)
Had a nice DRY commute today -- yesterday got soaked to the bone, and my clothes didn't dry out all the way by the time I had to leave. Today was cloudy but nice. I saw an airplane pulling a banner, but I couldn't read the banner. I've been enjoying the lovely fresh green color as all the leaves pop out. Also a good number of other commuters out. Side note: Is it always windy from west to east on the I-90 bridge?
I just got a freebie Terry Liberator saddle that I'm going to try out on the rental bike. (My normal commuter is still in the shop; it's been 1.5 months. I bet I wear out the chain on the rental bike before I get my regular bike back.) I'm looking forward to trying out a different saddle on the rental bike, as the one that was on there reminds me of this Craigslist description.
