Two years ago my bike collided with a car, and I suffered a compression fracture on a lower vertebra. As I was pretty young back then (72), I was on my Zwift bike a week later, and back on my road bike a week after that. I couldn't have done it, though, without having my wife drive me and the mangled bike to the LBS the day after the accident.
