Hi all,
Its been almost 6 weeks since I broke my collarbone in kilarney and i thought Id let you know how I was getting on. The bone itself feels pretty strong, its healed up well according to the doctors. At the moment I nearly have full range of motion back, I just need to be careful pushing things with my left arm for another while.... In the mean time Im on the road bike trying to keep fit for when I do return to racing. Ive even managed to lift a few weights over the last week or so. Ive decided to give the race this weekend in Cullohill a miss, I could probably race, but if anything went wrong it could be the end of my season so I think a bit of patience is best.....
heres the X-ray taken the day after I broke it!!!! its not too clear, but you get the idea...
so thats it for now, hopefully I dont do anything stupid in the mean time to hurt it again and it heals up in time to get a bit of practice in before the 3rd round of the maxxis cup in andorra, thats on the 28th of June, so it should be fine by then!!!
