Healthy? I seem to recall seeing an avid bicyclist friend last weekend who had crashed his bike -- no cars involved -- and now has his arm in a sling.
Seriously, riding a bicycle for commuting or fun or general exercise is an entirely different proposition than competitive cycling. Just like playing catch in the back yard or joining the church softball team is not equal to playing Major League baseball.
Merely a flesh wound. Had it way worse from cars. Anyway, the bike's fine.
Equating ”bicycling” to play or sport biking pushes one of my (many) buttons.

People are too critical of these world class athletes.
Because the strict regulations and prohibition of performance enhancing drugs is much like the larger war on drugs, it creates lazerr like foci amongst the drug manufacturers to come up with super potent strains with high purity ratios.
Some day they will make a super drug that will allow humans to stay awake, work and be productive 24 hours a day! With no side effects! And your muscles will be constantly eating fat from your body! The more you stay awake, the better you look and the younger you are! Stay awake today!!
And when they finally make this Amazing breakthrough (i think Halcyon would be perfect if its not taken yet), we will look back at forerunners such as Jose Conseco, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lance Armstrong as the true pioneers that they were.
