That would depend upon where the backup address is located; local or online. If local, you would run your Bitcoin client program and let it receive the up-to-date blockchain so that your coins will be listed there. If online -- e.g., instawallet.org -- you would log in on that site, assuming you know the URL corresponding to that BTC address. If you *did* happen to use an old SR deposit address as your backup wallet address -- obviously not a good idea -- the coins should eventually reappear in your SR account.
