• Anyone claimed off the council for shitty road road surfaces causing an off? Just had a pothole send me over the handlebars. Elbow and knee pretty messed up, bike possibly damaged too.

  • Yeah.

    Get photos of the pothole (I took a ruler and used it and my feet for scale and depth). Then get onto google and see if you can find evidence that it's been there a while - you can use a little date slider thing to find older pictures of the same location.
    If you can find evidence it's been there for more than say 3-6 months you might be in with a chance. It depends on the road though - different roads have different requirements for inspection frequency.
    Start taking details or any witnesses and start totting up any damage costs too.
