• Thanks guys

    I was Westbound. They were Eastbound and turning right into station car park at Hackney Central by the Costa.

    They did stop, and couldn't have been nicer about it after the event. Have their details and a couple of witnesses, so I hope should be clear cut.

    Am with friends and being taken care of.

  • Lawyer up now

    My experience is people couldn’t be nicer when they just think it’s a bike and that a bike costs £200 at Halfords. However their disbelief that a wheel alone costs more than that makes them less nice, let alone cost of a custom bike that is a write off, clothing and damages to a person.

  • I read the Jeffcott thread before I came here. Cost of the bike means we'll very likely be dealing with insurance. Would be keen to here any individual experiences of that, via PM if preferred.

    Just had an X-ray. Elbow fractured. Will speak to the driver this afternoon, to let them know I'll have to log with police to pursue insurance claim.

    Will police be able to chase up CCTV?

  • This is literally what happened to missus's Talbot too .. driver was very nice and offered to pay cash not knowing the value .. shat themselves when they saw the quote then we lawyered up (BC) to get it sorted, it worked.
