Do incorporate some basic back strengthening exercises in your routine. This is not for these rides per se, but it does count when it comes to overall health, and can protect your back to some extent, and fight against the wear and tear on these roads

Pothole protests focus on humungous tragedies, those who have lost their lives as vehicles have bumped into potholes, most of these mo-bikes causing riders to fall off. They have been run over by speeding vehicles behind, or sustained grievous injuries.
Now doctors are flagging serious neck and back problems for those mo’ bike riders especially, though this can also happen to commuters especially in auto-rickshaws, because of the potholes. Complaining about potholes is ongoing but as authorities have showed us, we do not seem to have a permanent solution, as these appear with irksome frequency, especially during monsoon time.
