Steve - Good to hear. I broke my back (compression fracture of the T10, 11, 12 and L1 vertebrae) in Feb. of '94. Had to wear a brace for 9 months. Couldn't do any impact exercising for another 6 months after that. Finally got back on the bike until June of '95.
Unfortunately after an hour or so of riding my back would be in pain. I went to two orthos and two chiros and their only solution was I shouldn't ride. Then one day I had a spectacular crash and, while I rag-dolling in the dirt, felt something go pop in my back. Immediately the pain went away and never returned.
