By GAZZA - Posted on 05 September 2008

just got back from the physio and seen my xrays. ive got a thoratic scoliosis and a misaligned pelvis!( forgive my spelling tien ) basically, i havn't looked after my back and need to stretch a lot more and do yoga. my muscles are so tense that they've pulled my back out one too many times. ive been ignoring my backpain for years and am now in the early stages of osteo arthritis.ive got three weeks of intensive chiro then a lot more conditioning to strengthen my core and loosen up my hamstrings,back and shoulders. im kind of looking forward to all of this as ive been doing some long rides recently and been in a lot of pain during them. its been quite offputting when its your back pain thats slowing you down, not your legs. cant wait to concentrate of my flexibility, which in turn gives you more strength and power( watch out roid boys Smiling )
anyway, enough of the blabber, im giving away my entry to anyone mad enough to want to compete last minute in all this mud this weekend at the doctor. i'll still want the money for the accomodation as i still owe it to rob.
my mobile number is 0410470473 if youre interested,
to all the rest of you, good luck and have a great weekend.

Can't help you with the ticket Gazza as I'm already sorted but sorry to hear you can't make it.
Still you sound positive that the treatment is for the best. Looking forward to riding with you when you get it all sorted out, get well soon!

I also like the Yoga idea. Suggest to find a suitable spot OUTDOORS, especially after a few of Bernd's homebrews... see:

a bout of pilates and a good dose of glucosamine should ease the strain.

Should be back...in no time.
