    Bloody lethal. Hit a pothole, went flying off my bike and barely have any skin left.

    2/10 experience, wouldn’t recommend.

    Take a picture if pothole is of a certain depth you have a legitimate case against the council for damages to yourself and the bike ....hope you aren't in too much pain and the bike is not damaged....healing thoughts sent

    40mm is the depth at which a pothole must be filled.

    Hope you recover quickly. For the amount of roadworks continually going on your think they'd be on top of the pothole situation!
