the road to recovery

Well I have had a few people asking me to write something on here, sorry for the wait but I have been been trying not think so much about cycling while I'm not able to ride and filling my time with other things to pass the days untill I could do some training again.
So picking up from where I left it, I went and saw the specialist and fortunately I didnt need an operation which was good, all I needed was to wear a fancy strap to pull my shoulders back to make sure the collar bone would line up properly while healing. She also told me I couldn't ride my bike for 2 weeks, which I already saw coming after reading a few articles on the internet. Luckily instead of having to sit in my apartment for 2 weeks and being bored as hell, I was able to catch a train up to Holland and stay with my aunty, uncle and their two kids. Was really good for a change of scenery and i got to do a few touristy things and mostly chill out and treat the time as a holiday. I also did a bit of walking everyday to keep the fitness up a bit.

I am now back in Lyon and have started riding my bike on the erg and I must say I feel so much better finally being able to get on my bike even though im feeling very slow. The shoulder is feeling ok holding the handlebars at the moment and the pain is slowly getting less everyday and I can move my arm almost normally without to much pain. I think by the end of the week I will be able to start some training on the road so im looking forward to that. But will know for sure after my x-ray at the end of the week.
