If you couldn’t see it in bad weather then it is a hazard.
I know it’s council funds but if it was me I’d me claiming damages to my bike.
If it was a motorcyclist they would sue too.
If it was bike damage then a repair should be paid for.
Anyone saying no, ok you’re Mum or Dad came off their bike in bad weather due to hole being filled in by rain-maybe they should look where they are going? -yeah the same swearing back at you.
It’s easy to judge when we don’t know the full facts and it hasn’t happened to us.
If you can afford the fix do it yourself or ask bike compensation repair.
Feel sorry for you sexpest being knocked out etc but being cut open from your clothing by the medics and your username then I think you secretly enjoyed the groping by the female medics and the polaroids taken… :wink:
