Pete Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Did you have it long? At least you are ok. It's a little hard to read your account of events, can you break it down a bit with a new line after each bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soonto_HAS_soop Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 That's one huge pot hole, I'd be writing a letter to the council regarding it, as long as you were doing no wrong, like driving too fast or dangerously, then you may have a case that the road caused your vehicle excess damage and that caused you to have the accident.

SupraAyf Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 There seems to have been a number of accidents advised recently on this forum. I don't think Supe's and this kind of weather go hand in hand really (i.e. the type when its raining one minute and baking hot the next - it doesn't do much for good service grip conditions). Best of luck with the repairs though mate! Mine will stay in the garage as usual. This way, I only get to drop pedal bikes and metalled ladders against the body work!!
