Unfortunately, I shattered my clavicle into 5 pieces and have had a plate with 8 screws in it for the past 3 years. This is a sad story and one I can relate to.

Entire season of Sportive rides was written off in about three seconds. On the plus side I am out of my sling at last and starting on the physio to get some movement back in my shoulder (the physio lass was gorgeous but brutal!).

I know how it feels to have your season shot in a few short seconds. I feel for the IT guy and I am sure he will be hungry and back for Leadvilled next year. Tough break.....(in more ways than one) I was the dude who broke his collarbone for Rockwell Relay. I know how it feels to have your season shot in a few short seconds.

I predict it will be next year that the IT guy becomes hard core and goes hairless. We shall see, but do get well soon!

You folks are freaking hilarious! Fatty, I'm glad that you included your race report too. I was very interested to know how your race turned out. And now I know why The Runner let me pass. It wasn't kindness, it was self preservation against a crash. Oh well, still works for me. Until next time... I love reading these comments. You folks are freaking hilarious!
