Dude that sucks... not to make you feel any worse but I broke my collarbone the same way (my xrays look very similar to yours) and it took a month before I took my sling off. It was two before I could bike again, and even then my collarbone was still sore when I moved my arm quickly.

But anyway... have fun with vicodin and pillows. Healing vibes!

Thats a little odd............ Now you've got me wondering when my two year anniversary for my collarbone is!

I think a month is pushing it a bit as well....... collarbones SUCK!

here is my advice: don't laugh, lay down, stand up, or breathe. Thats what hurt mine! :D

Healing vibes to ya, and don't worry, in a month or two, you can show that double who's boss!

Sometimes Sh!t just happens. My buddy broke his leg 3 weeks ago making a left turn. He's the only person I've met that has broken a bone JRA.

He was coming into a 6 pack we have built, and the run in is kinda weird. You pedal hard, come into a berm and go down a tiny little hill and then into the jumps. Well, he's a BMXer turned MTBer and hasnt been on a BMX in a long long time. He borrowed someones BMX bike, his pedal clipped the ground coming down the hill, and bam, broke his leg.
