Forgive me if this is too far off topic, although it's related to Rivendell's concerns of proper bike comfort, fit, etc.
After cycling 100-200 miles/week for 4 months on my Romulus I managed to get a herniated disk. I'm not positive it was caused by cycling, but it seems quite likely (my doctor thinks so too). In my research I've found that some people with this condition continue to cycle. After not riding for the first two injured months, I began riding a little bit to keep sane and have found my pain sometimes lessens while riding. Two doctors I've consulted with said it might be okay to cycle if I'm okay with it, but they seem hesitant. I'd like to hear any anecdotal stories you have about this (or healing/treatment as it pertains to cycling). I really have grown to love riding bikes and would hate to stop (but of course I'll stop when appropriate). Feel free to reply off-list. -nathan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
