Mark Cavendish has completed surgery on his collarbone after he crashed out in stage 8 of the Tour de France earlier this week.
The fracture is believed to have occurred in a place he already had pins from an injury that happened a decade ago.

Speaking to fans on Instagram, he says it won't be a quick fix:
