You appear to have retained your sense of humour anyway
Best wishes for a full and fast recovery.

Aye you've got yourself a proper 'Tyler Hamilton' - sorry to hear, Buggi, take it easy (and enjoy the medication) and you'll be up and back on the (sounds pretty undamaged) bike in no time.

Mel.

I only type with one finger (and my tongue hanging out for concentration), so you're still up on 2 armed me!

Hope the bike is OK.



And you, of course!

Sorry to hear of your accident! A lot of people 'bonk' after 70-odd miles, but you have to go and break your collar bone! Now you're a proper cyclist!

It's a painfull break, but you should be up and riding within 3-4 weeks hopefully!
Getting dressed will be fun; and take time.
Speedy recovery, buggi!

I broke mine three years ago, but watching those vids I can still feel the pain!

Arrrhh Buggs - done mine once too ! - yuh mean yuh tried to emulate superman/superwoman try crying to yourself for a bit then the determination sets in !

Really feel for ya.

You'll be sorted proper in about a month - 6 weeks ! - don't push it: let the body heal itself; have a nice rest.

All the best !

When I broke mine in my teens I knew I'd done it as I could feel the 2 bits of bone rubbing together. When I told the doc in casualty he says "Who's the doctor here, I'll be the judge of that" and then pulled my t-shirt over my head.

Me: "OWWW! You f***ing idiot!!"

 

[gbb]

Aww Buggi...i'm cringing at the thought.

get well soon....

 

[Cycling Naturalist]

Do you need any bits of you rubbing better?

 

[bonj2]

oh no buggi!
get well soon.

just enjoy getting off your tits on morphine for now.

 

[Aperitif]

Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery Buggi - don't shoulder all the blame for the crash - hold your hands up yes, but...

Also sorry to hear that your bike is being examined for crack - is that why you crashed it?

Enough already!
Well get soon.
