Int it just bl**dy typical!

Typical!! Best weather for quite a while and was planning a couple of earlyish rides yesterday & today, (I'm working late shifts ATM) then an off-roader with friends tomorrow.
I woke up yesterday morning with a real backache. Luckily, I don't normally suffer from back problems, but this has really laid me out! This morning is just the same. It took me 5 mins 'unlock' myself and get moving.
It's darn painful as well! Whenever I stand up, it feels like my legs are about to give way.

Grrrrrrrrrrr

Have you pulled it ? Ouch

I'm really not sure.. I didn't do anything to hurt it, I just woke up like it

There was a charity ride on a few months back and I was planning to do the long route, the Friday before I tweaked my back and ended up doing the short route slowly its a sod when that happens.

Man I really feel for you.
I did my back in last week lifting some heavy stuff. I was going to go camping this week but at the moment I struggle to get out of bed let alone cycle 50+ miles and pitch a tent

I hope your back (and mine!) get better quickly!

It's so easy to do, isn't it... and it takes a while to get back to normal as well. Hope yours sorts itself out soon.
I tend to keep away from tablets as much as possible as I reckon that it masks the pain so you can end up sitting/laying in an awkward position & when the tabs wear off it's much worse.
I've improved a bit but nowhere fit enough to cock my leg over a crossbar yet

Thanks for the virtual grapes and Lucozade folks..

GWS all.... mine's been niggling which means one surprise sneeze or cough and it'll go.

Rats init. My back is playing up a bit too. Seems to transfer into my hip as well. GWS back sufferers

There's a serious bit of synchronicity going on here. My wife keeps telling me off for not taking pain killers/anti inflammatories but I also hate taking tablets.
