I love it but streetfighter with none ohlins.

Can you not put in a claim to the council? I don't rate your chances but it might be worth a go speaking to a bike specialist solicitor.

Thx bigoz someone else also recommended them so will try.

You'll most likely need some photos of the offending pot hole with something to indicate sizes. Get some quick before they repair it!

Don't know if it's still the case, given the current state of our roads but in the past if a specific defect had already been reported and not yet rectified, the local council was liable.

We'll, to borrow an (overused) phrase from our American cousins - that's awesome! A really nice gesture.

Yep, can't think of a better word myself ... awesome.

So its been a while now Slob, how are you doing - feel like you have turned the corner? Thinking about physio? Whats the latest?

slob · 06-07-2019, 12:31 PM

started physio on knee last week, got knee and back follow ups in next ten days, really need to get out of back brace and get some proper exercise soon!

Good to hear indeed.

One day when the dust has finally settled I shall be pleased to hear by what monstrous bad luck and feats of daring do you managed to sample Oxford’s finest hospital foodstuffs?
