I went biking at south mountain again by myself on Sunday. Everything was going well, I even went a few miles further than previous rides. Then, about as far from the parking lot as I could be, I went over a "rapid decrease in elevation" (really it was only maybe 16" high), and came down hard on my seat. The force rotated the seat downward in front, and my lower back immediately started to hurt. The rest of the ride back was with my seat tilting down, all sorts of fun. :-P
When I finally got back to the car and had to load up the bike, I could tell my back was really hurting. By the time I got home and cleaned up, I was about done for - I could barely bend over without lots of pain.
Went to the doctor Monday morning, said everything looks ok and it's just a really bad strain. Here it is Wednesday night, and it still hurts significantly. Bah. :-\
