Race preparations don't always go to plan - bike crash
4 days to race day: So, this morning on my cycle-commute to work I had an introduction to a wall and some metal railings at a reasonably high speed. Fortunately the wall was unhurt. I took a bit of a bashing in the chest - and am expecting a fair bit of bruising. Kinky brake lever The bike now has the brake/gear lever realigned/snapped on one side. On a positive - it happened opposite a cycle shop - so I could get a diagnosis of the bike damage quickly. And it was only a 10 minute walk from work, so I didn't have to trudge too far afterwards. My immediate concern was how much. £199 + labour. that would definitely put a dent into my finances. Then I remembered I have specialist bike insurance and it looks like it should all be covered.
