Anyone have any suggestions for how to alleviate upper back pain on long (+2hr) trips? I tend to get burning pain in my lats the worst, with some pain between my shoulders, but definitely the worst in the lats, and usually only on one side or the other for some reason. It happens on both the Vmax and the Stratoliner (which has a full windshield so I'm not fighting wind much). Right now it's the only thing preventing me from taking looooong trips.
I'm looking for something I can apply to myself as the rider (such as a back brace) first before jumping into new handlebars and backrests and stuff for the bikes, especially since I like the current setups for short distance. I'm young, I use the gym quite frequently and stretch and eat healthy and all that fun stuff and I only get this pain from long rides.
Any suggestions or things that have worked for you guys would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Connor
