Hiya mate here my two penny's worth!! Bust mine badly last APril 2 months before 1st trip to Morzine :'( Luckily I was able to move it to end of July, still wasnt healed and hurt like hell! Mine needed 3 days in hospital what with a long operation to fix it, had internal sutures (or something like that) rather than a plate, this was an experiemnt that I am glad seems to have worked! Anywasy cue at least 10 appointments with the specialist xrays, fracturing it once when I tried to ride my hardtail one handed with the sling on at my local trail almost went over the bars but flinched enough to snap 6 weeks good healing time I learnt my lesson. Even now almost a year later if I sleep on it i.e when im pi**ed it will hurt like fu$k all the next day, but ridding it rocks! In July last year in Morzine it hurt a bit but no to bit, had a mad fall and luckily landed on my right side (non broken collar bone) and manager to fracture that arm, hehehehhe
So moral of the story is rest, rest and rest, get u sed to sleeping crap for at least 3 months and 2 months of that with a pillow propping the arm up so the collar bone is in a natural positon!
Good luck mate, hope you get ridding soon!
neme
