I hit a pothole yesterday, and whilst still cursing i then hit a bigger one straight afterwards that really lamped my front tyre.
What the hell are they making roads out of these days?
I'm even scared to ride over a puddle now because these potholes are appearing so quickly and seem to be really deep within a day!
One thing i will say though is if you do see potholes that are just taking the piss then go online to the council and report them, because we all whinge about them and presume someone else has reported them but that is most likely not the case.
It only takes 5mins to do and you'd be surprised how quickly they put a temporary fill in once they know about it, and that's better than nothing.
I reported one near work the other day and it was fixed in two days.
Just make sure you write NEEDS URGENT ATTENTION when describing it.
