Another airport nightmare... Ironman triathlete's £15,000 TT bike and kit lost by British Airways — cyclist still waiting to be reunited two weeks later cycling
When Neil Feakins boarded his flight home from Vienna having competed in Ironman Austria on July 3rd he had already read about a fellow Ironman athlete, Sian Hurley, whose bike and kit had not arrived in Newcastle on a connecting flight from Heathrow she and her family had boarded to complete their journey from Australia to Ironman UK.
"I dutifully put in the claim to be told at Heathrow I'd likely have it delivered to home within 24 hours," Neil told road.cc. The worried owner of the misplaced Canyon Speedmax TT bike and kit worth £15,000 has also contacted the airport in Vienna directly but was told "they are very busy but if I want to go to Vienna I can".
road.cc has contacted British Airways but, at the time of publishing, has not received a reply. We will update this story with any response we receive.
