A athlete who was set to compete in an Ironman triathlon in France was left seething after Ryanair lost his £9,000 bike.
Tom Kennedy, 31, flew from Edinburgh to Nantes on Thursday with his parents Sally and Graham. He was set to compete at an event at Les Sables d'Olonne at the weekend, reports the Daily Record.
On landing, they discovered the airline had failed to load his specialist bike, wetsuit and helmet onto the plane. After training for 12 months, he will be unable to complete in the 70.3KM swim, run and cycle race.
