On Monday I was knocked off my Trek at 20mph when an 11yr. old boy kicked a football at me.
Note: "At me."
As a result, I have sustained a broken right shoulderblade plus the usual bruising, road rash etc.
Approx. £150 worth of Trek/Cinelli/Lowe Alpine clothing was also ruined.
Damage to bike may be limited to grip tape, though I haven't had the heart to look yet...
Kid has been reported to police & matter is well in hand re statements etc.
I (obviously) have his name, address etc. Parents are decent, but refuse to conceded that it was
deliberate.
There were independent witnesses, but I was in no condition to get their details, so no help there.
How would I stand claiming compensation for:
a) Material damage to bike, clothes etc?
b) Compensation for injury?
I have a good professional association which retains an efficient law firm.
Any web sites offering assistance?
Sorry for "Telegram English",but typing not too convenient/comfortable...
