Oscar Onley suffers third broken collarbone in eight months after Amstel Gold Race crash
CyclingMonday, 15 April 2024 at 12:30
Having been forced to abandon the first Grand Tour of his career at last year’s Vuelta a España after suffering a broken collarbone in a crash on stage 2, Oscar Onley managed to recover enough to compete in Il Lombardia and the Tour of Guangxi at the end of the 2023 season.
He then began his 2024 campaign by taking his first professional win on stage 5 of the Tour Down Under, as well as finishing fourth overall. However, a crash at the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race saw him break his collarbone once again.
He made his comeback Gran Premio Miguel Indurain, where he finished in third place behind Brandon McNulty and Maxim Van Gils. He then went to Itzulia Basque Country, finishing fifth on the final stage around Eibar after being in the breakaway for most of the stage.
However, misfortune struck Onley once again in his first Spring Classic of the season at the Amstel Gold Race, as he suffered a crash and was forced to abandon the race with yet another broken collarbone.
With another period of recovery now required, the effect that injuries have had on Onley’s season is clear to see in what could have been a breakout year for the young British rider from dsm-firmenich PostNL.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
