The title of this post is a take-off on “A.O.G”, or “Aircraft On Ground”, used when an aircraft needs to fly but can’t because of some mechanical issue. Usually it implies some degree of urgency, so rush that parts order and have a mechanic standing by. In this case, it’s “Bird On Ground”.

\nThat’s not<\/em> what a normal collarbone, avian or human, should look like.<\/p>\n

To answer the question I know all the hard-core cyclists out there are wanting to know, the bike is fine. The right brake\/shifter got rotated inward a bit, but I can fix that. My helmet has some small dimples on the right side, so I’ll go ahead and replace it. This happened when I went around a corner, heard some small gravel under the front tire, the bike shuddered, and I was on the ground. The whole thing took, maybe, I think around 600ms.<\/p>\n

The doctor advised me to keep the arm immobilized as much as possible and just let the bone mend itself. I certainly won’t be doing any kayaking over the next 6 to 8 weeks and I may end up with a bit of a bump on my shoulder. If that happens, I figure then when someone accuses me of “having a chip on my shoulder”, I can point and say “YES, and THERE it is!”<\/p>\n

Followup with the doctor is in 3 weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
