    Experiences with travel insurance and bikes - or general insurance for that matter?

    Make sure you check your home contence insurance first as i'm with qbe and it covers my bike (and anything else ie;golf clubs) up to 10k anywhere in the world and that comes as standard with the policy. The only exclusion is if it gets damaged whilst racing. Worth asking just in case it is covered.

But i would be pretty sure that if you have a regular bike shop...
