After a short (20 min), hard uphill ride, I've gotten terrible cramps in my back/stomach, exactly like period pain, but I know it can't be that, wrong time of the month. Has anyone else experienced this, or know what causes it? It's receding now but it left me almost doubled over for 20 minutes.
Not been riding long. Just had half a pint of water before setting out, nothing to eat.

Yup - I've felt that before - though I can usually get rid of it in less than 20 min by stopping. Make sure you warm up thouroughly before you do any really hard riding and you probably won't experience it anymore.
