In response to:
It would seem that you very vigorous cycling can lead to some spurious elevations of your PSA. However, given that you have previously been diagnosed with prostate cancer, we have to be cautious that this PSA is not rising as a result of disease progression. I would abstain from cycling for 3-5 days and then repeat the PSA. If the new value represents a rise, then a repeat prostate biopsy will be needed to restage your disease.
