There are some good guys
When setting off for the North Wales 4 rideout, I stopped to fill up at the Texaco petrol station in Ruthin. When I stopped I failed to spot the pothole by the pump, result was the front wheel rolled into the pot hole after I put her on the side-stand, bike fell over and broke off the mirror (panniers and crash bungs saved the rest). I filled out an 'incident report' and wrote to them to claim for a new mirror. 6 weeks later and a cheque arrives through the post (this morning).
So top marks to Malthurst Ltd for not trying to wriggle out of it and paying for damage caused to my bike by the damaged surface.

Re: There are some good guys
Yes but they sent you £50 for the mirror and made £250 by sending the CCTV footage to "Youve been framed".
Every silver lining and all that.

 Probably! Look out for video of me and speedy diving to save her, teetering on the tipping point for a minute before slowly being overcome and losing her..... Then getting a hernia picking her up!

Re: There are some good guys
Well done. Mogs, reckon there's scope for me to get cash from Terry at Superbites for my bike blowing over in his car park?
