That's really freaking odd looking. Did he go to long without a check up or what? You know it's bad when Super Glue and duct tape cant fix it.

That doesn't look good. I'm not a doctor, but I may have stayed at a Holiday Inn, last night.

"Bell was hoping to be back for Santa Clara, but contracted a bacterial infection after having surgery to repair a broken collarbone suffered in Oakland. The infection required a second surgery, followed by a six-week period on an IV antibiotic"

Kinda weird to be able to see the hardware inside on the bone ... Yuk

I think I'll skip breakfast today. Hope to see Zach back in action soon.

A collarbone is plated on top of the bone, not inside.

Kid should quite pro racing. He's blazing fast on some days but he's been injured more then some will be in their full career. We all remember his big crash in Supercross, falling down between the triple, that sums up what kind of racer it is.

Crashing Bell, won't become consistent Bell.

I think they have to get the infection under control before he starts thinking of a comeback. His body seems to be fighting the new hardware. I am no doctor, but it's going to be a bit before he is back out there.

Poor bugger, but yes your right its going to be a while.

Really think he has some talent but man so much injury time-down just must take its toll.

I hope he can make a comeback and show'em.

Heal up Zach, and go get'em!.

Cheers Rock.

Wish him well. It flat out sucks dealing with an infection and iv antibiotics especially when hardware is involved. Sounds like he has it handled and can finish healing and move on. Get well Zach
