Is it still slippery when it's dried then?
Sorry to hear of your accident Mark, the round about seemed fine today so they must have cleaned it up. Very dangerous combination diesel and roundabouts had a couple of friends have the same accident one at Frome A361 and one in Westbury on Station Road.
Glad it wasnt worse [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
But when you see a wet or deisel patch in the dry you can spot it from much futher back,normally trying to miss it.You are right about the rainbow colour in the wet,rode to work this morning and their were patchs everywere on the trading estate.In the MCN they are saying you can clain for accidents on deisel even if you cant find the car/lorry who spilt it
How do I do that mate? Still bloody killing me. I was back on the bike today, and did it f***ing hurt bending my leg into position. Does that mean MCN is useful for something other than wiping yer backside... ;DQuote:

Glad to hear your on a bike again Mark. Just go steady for god's sake. Give the Knee a chance. :)
I did think that Jon... :-?
I think any potential claim is against the Highways agency :-/
I think its something todo with keeping roads in a fit state :o
I'm guessing that the spill I encountered was very fresh and hadn't been reported, which probably negates any potential claim... :(
Fair play to the Highways Agency, they were on the scene very quickly, and did a good job of cleaning up the spill.
Not Highways Agency - they look after trunk roads. Would have been Wiltshire Council
I know I know :D

You would have to prove, on balance, that a; they knew about the spill and b; they did nothing about it.
Both I believe are difficult to prove, even on balance without evedence.
As I repeat, the best thing to do with the MCN in the case of an oil spill is to use it to mop the excess up. Good for the enviroment, good for bikers,
Forgot to show the pictures...
The back tyre... :(
Nasty!!!
Hope the knee is on the mend now Mark.

It actually looked more obvious in the picture. On the approach it was hardly noticeable. Hey ho... ::)Quote:
