    Not really sure. Probably a car crash in May '05. I was rear-ended while looking up into my rearview mirror (saying "Please don't hit me. Please don't hit me."). Neck/shoulder/arm pain started in late July or August '06 (It moved from annoyance to major issue by September) when we started ramping up mileage on the bikes in preparation for a Century. MRI finds "multilevel degenerative disc disease extending from C3 through C7" with minor bulging at the other discs and a full blown herniation at C5-6.
