Got 500 to replace the bike. But gonna add money to it and get something sweeeeeet. And I am still deciding whether or not to do personal injury. Its only tissue damage and I only missed a week of work. So is it immoral? I don't know. Will probably put one in ;-) everyone else does so why shouldn't I!!

My knee was injuried 14 months ago, thought it was a bad sprin or something, 14 months later, my knee is still not right, i have had 1 surgery and months of physio. I am still limping, It hurts like hell when I do stairs, it hurts when I cycle, and can't play polo in the foreseeable future. If I could turn the clock back, I would have sued those bastards until they go bankrupt. Can't tell you if you should pursue it further, but I would never ever be soft again with inconsiderate road users, be that drivers, fellow cyclists and peds.

Pleased to hear it, get yourself something special to make up for it.
Definitely go the personal injury route, you were injured. As far as I'm concerned any physical or mental discomfiture and someone needs to be held accountable.

I agree with extra and NCGee! Normally I am very anti personal injury sort of things but that has changed since some c**t open their car door on me six months ago. I left it and didn't even ask them for the money for my scraped leather saddle as they were nice and very apologetic. However six months on my shoulder is still fucked and I still can't swim properly (I used to be quite good). So I say get some money off the fuckers!

Thanks for the sympathy guys. Never thought I'd get hit cycling in leafy Weybridge! Wasn't even in London for gods sakes. Am trying to reply to all PMs but am on the phone so sorry if it's taking a while.
After these posts I will definitely be claiming!
Lastly the bike is now being split. Please pm if you want specific parts. I will update the thread of parts get sold :-)

Was recently hit by a car and the bike took the majority of the impact. Obviously not looking for much and doubt anyone will want the entire thing. Front wheel is rendered completely useless, the frame is pretty bad too. The left brake level is bent out of place. But everything else is okay.
It is completely stock as I only had it for two months before the accident.
I really have no idea if any of the stuff on it is of any use to anyone so just let me know if it is.
If anyone wants anything they can collect from SW6 in the week or at Waterloo during the weekend.
