sorry to hear.

the good news is they'll plate that thing up and you'll be back out in no time. just barely four weeks after my surgery i went out on the moto yesterday for the first time... i think i'll get all of my broken bones plated in the future for quick healing.

...good luck and watch lots of riding videos, you'll come back a better rider!

Barcy, sorry to hear about the crash & injury, collarbone is one of the shittier breaks.

Ti or steel, whatever you pick, you gotta get it anodized! :lol:

Didn't anyone get the carnage on film?

And yeah, spill it about the new bike! Just beware, you can spend a lot of cash with six weeks of downtime!

Go Ti! That looks like a nasty break. I hope they gave you the good pain meds and I hope you heal up quick.

Mannnn!!! Bummer. A lot of people are getting taken out. It's that time of year. The dirt is ugly loose. "Kitty litter over ball bearings" and piles of talcum powder.

Which jump took you out?
