Rest up and stay home. Clavicle will get there, stop aggravating the break. Nephew minced his in supercross and huge gaps joined up. Eventually.

No idea about current, I left when I was 19 - I'd like to think the young kids across Aus are generally better than our gens were.

I reckon the young kids are much, much better. I'm always pleasantly surprised when one of the kids pulls me up on some saying that I might use but never really considered the derogatory aspects. I am as multicultural as they come and have been called everything (and I mean everything) under the sun, so I've got such a thick skin to this sort of stuff that its just like water off a duck's back.

Non union fractures. Sports injury specialist called it, no healing of clavicle evident and needs surgery. It’s likely gotten a sliver of fascia in between the ends that’s stopped the calcification process - so it will never heal properly. Not elective.

The trick now is convincing the public system of the same conclusion... Otherwise I fork out the $4ish K.

And in addition to the pneumonia, the chest X-ray yesterday also showed fluid build up i the chest cavity - gp just called and said ANY difficulty breathing go straight to hospital for draining. Yay....

I don’t like 2020. Just fail after fail...

Did you ever explain how you crashed in the first place? Keen to know...

He took the alfa out for a track day and inexplicably the doors fell off while simultaneously the steering shaft broke and the seatbelts failed on a tight left hander. Alfa is ok.

The other day I saw a Jeep Cherokee towing a Discovery and wondered if they take turns being the tower and towee,.

Pedal strike. I was riding tired, went out for a ride to clear my head - but I must have just vagued out for a second on a fast left hand sweeper and ran wide.

I think the right pedal caught the embankment, which jacked up the front, front wheel shot out to the left and I went down still attached and body slammed the ground. Impact was all right shoulder and torso and hip - helmet minor scrapes, but I’ll replace it anyway.

I was on the ground before I knew what hit me...

Dude...you are getting reamed by 2020! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I am surprised you have had difficulty with the public system. The act must be all out of whack with the civilised world. I and people in my crew who have had similar issues with our shoulders have all been well taken care of by the public system here.

Still that $4k is a huge saving on the cost of the failed private health system we are corruptly forced to prop up.

Photocopier accident? Fell off the fax machine sending a fax of his arse to the boss? Slipped in the toilet cubicle? Jammed in the lift doors? Crunched by the security gate on the front door? Slipped on a coffee spill? There's a lot of risks .

Fax. Lol... We’ve moved on to pdfs I’ll have you know! I did get slammed by a security gate once though, massive bruise down my arm.
