    Hi, I was taking part in a race 5 weeks ago & unfortunately crashed off the bike. I have been out of work since. Does anyone know if I can claim for loss of earnings from the organisers insurance? Any info greatly appreciated.

    Sorry about your accident

    Was it the organisers fault?

    I dont see how as it was your fault unless you can prove it wasn't if that's the case....

    You are eligible for social and depending on company you work for they may well pay full or part of.

    Was it a 'race' or an organised cycle?
    Sorry to hear that, sounds nasty.

    I really hope you can’t unless they were in some way negligent.
