There is nothing worse then the sound who has just taken a massive hit. Your body goes into straight survival mode. Never fun

[karlwalters]

Head down guy probably tried to use his Zwift technique to move through the peloton.

[wattsupcycling]

Damn. That collar bone break looks bad. Healing vibes! I felt that too much!

[neon-]

Yeah, I'm still recovering. But things are looking better. Thanks everyone

[hjuha]

those cries were horrible. Brought back some PTSD. And when did racing become -heads down? I was always taught -Heads up.

[Pedals]

In every bike race never put your head down…………

That guy recently upgraded from Category 4 to Category Fred. Speedy recovery for John!

[AustinIsTheGreatest]

I love The Edwardsville Criterium!!! That was my first race I ever did. I can't believe it made the channel. Last year was the first year I missed it in 4 years. Hope Johnathon gets well soon.

Between the scan image and "cost Jonathan his collarbone" I thought his collarbone might have literally been turned to dust for a second.

[vladimirromanovschii]

yeah, this is a real problem when you were blessed with pretty good legs and you upgrade to cat 1 or cat 2 way too fast....

[akhilkohli]

That cry after the fall gave me goosebumps,

[joshuapark]

Question: if you get in a crash like this where it is entirely the other rider's fault are you still responsible for your own medical bills + bike cost?

[PseudoReality]

Currently recovering from a broken collar bone. Mountain bike crash. I feel the pain, though the asphalt hurts a lot more.

[stephen_]

This is why I stick to Zwift for racing. Too old to be snapping my bones!

[xelseartheonlyone]

The dude literally not even looking in front of him. This is why i don't wanna race.

[davedyer]

That CT doesn’t even show a collarbone fracture!! That’s his coracoid process of his scapula that’s broken..

[l.d.t.]

Having had a grade 3 collarbone luxation collarbone just 3 weeks ago, I feel that pain.

[ianstelzner]

But should it be a right of passage???

[billkallas]

32 years of racing crits, and never a broken collarbone. (broken ribs, many times, but never a collarbone)

[CycoWarriorx]

Ouch… ouch… ouch… wish him a speedy recovery…
