Owie! My poor back!

[smilingcat]

OKAY I GIVE.... MY back is still messed up. Haven't been on the bike since 07-07-07. Tucky tripple "7" day. LUCK---KK--YYY DAAAYYY INDEED.

So how am I going to ride the holstein 100 ride. I've signed up, got a place to stay... My back is really bothering me. I've been going to the chiro, gyro classes, exercising my back, and the sharp pain in my small of my back is still there.

Yes snap. My ham string is wayy too tight. so is my calf, glutes, and quads. Oh can't forget about ITband and soaz either.

I am determined to go after no show at Cinderella ride. I wanted to the 100 easy mile but at this point I'll settle on a metric century.

Yes lower back pain is common among serious riders.

Here's the stretch I usually do for hams.

Hamstring Stretch

Lie down with one leg straight up in the air, the other bent with foot flat on the ground. Loop a towel over the arch of the lifted foot, and gently pull on the towel as you push against it with your foot. Push only to the point where your muscles contract. Stretch both legs.

Smilingcat, I could've written your reply myself...those are the exact pains that I have along with the lower back. Hmmmm, wonder what else we have in common? Perhaps you also spend too much time in the gym, on the trails, in the pool, and so on and so on....
