Since 2007, 431 cyclists have been killed or seriously injured as the result of a potholes or road defects.

    Pothole compensation claims are costing councils 25 times more in payouts for cyclists than for motorists, an investigation by Cycling UK has found.

    Stephen Greenham, an IT engineer at O2 from High Wycombe, ended up in A&E with a fractured wrist, bad bruising and road rash when he hit a pothole in Wooburn Green, Buckinghamshire in August 2018.
