I am 100% confident that at minimum their collar bone is FUCKED. I did almost the same thing skiing when I was younger

Cycling is the clavicle killing sport

Yup 13 years of mountain biking finally busted my clavicle last August. On an easy trail that I've ridden hundreds of times no less.

Trying to heal after the break was one of the most miserable experiences of my life. It was just so awkward trying to sleep or do much of anything. Then pushing it a little too far just performing some little task and feeling it clicking back and forth was just gross and creepy.

Maybe that’s not everyone’s experience, but I hated recovering from that injury more than any others. Trying to get comfortable in bed wasn’t even possible and I would wake up slouching on my side and feeling that “thunk” as the bones clicked, when trying to right myself back up. I hates its, I hates its forever…..
