Steve said Ian from ktm flew to Houston with a rider to have surgery? Strange for coenan to go there for surgery but who else would Ian be going with
Lucas raced with broken arms/wrists last year starting the season, Sacha will race most likely this weekend in foxhill if it’s only a plate to add.
Probably, yes.
Musquin I'm pretty sure lined up for a race immediately after collarbone surgery.
It's doable. I'm sure not ideal or fun. If I remember right Musquin got a 3rd or something in sx a few days after surgery!
And I think RC won a race a week after breaking one. But that was RC. Lol

Plate that collarbone and he’ll be back in action. The incision will be the only painful part.
How long until Fox Hills?
Will the fact that he rode 10 mins with a break cause any problems???
Four days from now...
Nah he’ll be right. Lotte VanDrunen said she was ko’d and nothing was done
It was an international concussion for Lucas so it doesn’t count. (I’m kidding)
Riding with a freshly plated collarbone has been done before, but those hills will add extra stress.
Will be interesting to see if Sacha makes it through Friday practice.
He was able to bear weight through that right side to push himself up off the ground, and lift the bike back up. Hard to speculate what it could be, but either way it was a hell of a performance.
don't forget about Schock raced 5 days after getting his collarbone plated
Just like drunk driving the morning after!
Its being said in the Great Britain thread that Sasha had surgery yesterday and has to get checked out by the doctor at the race on Friday before he gets clearance to ride and Lucas is fine.
Pretty sure RV and Stroupe both broke their collarbone a week before their SX debuts and that didn’t stop Mitch from putting them on the west coast still.
With todays technology and microsurgery can this be done so the incision is small?
The incision size will be determined on the size of the plate that was used
Pit Row
He had it plated here in the us and plans on racing this weekend if the FIM clears him. At least according to some Belgium reporter via mxlarge.

Baggett did as well. Broke it at Redbud, Had it plated and was back for Southwick.
Bowers broke his collarbone practicing on a Tuesday. He had it plated on Thursday and raced AX 2 days later. He won the title that year.
I mean ax & ax are like 20 min of riding. Mxgp is a ton of riding over 2 days. Going to be a lot tougher than a 15 min east coast lites main event
I've been Foxhills, those downhills are no joke. You stand at the top and look down and you can't see the slope. Film doesn't do them justice. Plus there's some newly built drop offs that are steep. I'll be surprised if he makes it through the weekend, i can't think of anything worse for his shoulder the load they'll be under going down them when he g's out in the compressions. Hope he makes it through okay
