Absolutely, Boris! Went for a light spin today (first time on bike since collision - two months). Felt good in the legs and on the shoulder.
My big concern is that should I have another collision or fall that shoulder will be fragile. Taking it easy and being careful is a must.

However, I must urge you to exercise double, no, triple caution when you're riding... At least until you got the results of the second x-ray test in January that hopefully would indicate full recovery.
