    It's all good. Here's to hoping he has a quick and speedy recovery, and ventures once forth into the abyss which is called... The Fully Loop!

    Well I go to see the ortho on monday......im no longer wearing the brace and have ok range of motion. I can put a shirt on, take a shower by myself etc. my wife has been awesome helping me out.

    Im having major mtn biking withdraws. Ive been trying to stay out of the garage so I dont see my bike. Im hoping the ortho will let me go back to work in a couple weeks and maybe send me to some physical therapy.

    Hate to tell you a few weeks is probably optimistic. I am at 6 weeks and I wasn't even ok'ed to ride a road bike even on a trainer.

    Round is a shape..., and BTW, you will probably be cleared to ride a road bike before a mtn bike, I hope Karma doesn't run you over like you do roadies with your redneck truck! Good to have you back!

    Aren't all the accidents at the Fully Loop freak accidents?
    For such a tame trail, it really phuqs people up.

    It sucks but they really set you up for that one when they said you will be healed in 4 weeks. Because the chance to fall on your shoulder in high in a docs mind on a bike they will play it very safe. Just because there is no pain doesn't mean it healed, I know that all too well. The first time I broke mine I was snowboarding a month after with a completely broken collar bone and had no idea until follow up and they took xrays showing it had not healed at all. I would say ASAP borrow a trainer so you can at least pedal.
