Sorry to hear about your mishap, but don't feel too depressed. You can
still ride rollers (or a trainer) with a broken clavicle -- I did it
with a separated AC, which is treated the same way (sling and Ace wrap
-- figure eight with a clavicle fracture). A broken clavicle is
somewhat more painful , though, but you can still keep you fitness up
-- mostly (there is nothing like real road miles).
One should be able to ride a recumbent with a broken clavicle, since no
real weight is supported by the arms.
Quoted message said:OT: I shattered my tibia and fibula yesterday skiing.... This
injury is going to keep me off my bike for a long time --
longer than I have been off in, well, since I learned to ride a two
wheeler in 1962....
Ugh. Have you considered a hand-cycle for temporary use? It would be
slow and difficult, but you would likely have really strong arms by the
time you heal.
