Yay! Martin Malins, formerly of this parish, has the CTC's legal eagles
onto Surrey CC after a pothole-induced crash put him in hospital for eleven
days over the new year with facial and internal injuries.

That looks like a really dangerous pothole. Good job the cyclist found it,
it might have damaged a car.

Was he blind? How could a 12mph cyclist miss that?

Bet he did it on purpose to get the compo.

That looks like a really dangerous pothole.
The hole in the picture is NOT the one described in the article.

How could a 12mph cyclist miss that?
He possibly was travelling a lot faster than that.

If the silly old sod ran over that he is not fit to be on the road.


"Because Cyclists are probably the most vulnerable group of road users

ffs - do they ride with their eyes closed?
