Just got my self a nice shiny new whip and got me thinking has any got their bike insured? Who did you got with and what have they been like to deal with?
When was the last time you had a renewal notice from Cyclecover?Cyclecover gold including home contents. Includes cover for when bike is in use. Don't need to list each bike separately just include it in total contents ceiling limit.
There are other threads on this too.
How does that scenario work if you are a pedestrian? Bikes are a pedestrian form of transport...Out of idle curiosity, how does it work if you're riding a bike on the road and cause an accident that's your fault, and don't have insurance? I've been through the process a few times when the driver was at fault. I assume you are liable to any damage caused?
Probably in the last 3 months I think. It included a $500 special excess ($1000 total) for any bike related claim. The standard excess was still $500.When was the last time you had a renewal notice from Cyclecover?
I was with them, but got the nasty shock as detailed in this thread:

It seems everyone's excess went up to $1000 "for each and every claim". Be interested to know if you got the same.
Not sure about other states but Bicycle Queensland membership includes liability insurance to cover such issues.Out of idle curiosity, how does it work if you're riding a bike on the road and cause an accident that's your fault, and don't have insurance?

Cyclecover gold doesn't even require the bike to be locked.^ no lock = no cover.
That is quite impressive. Sadly for most owners of quality bikes theft is too much of a reality these days.Cyclecover gold doesn't even require the bike to be locked.
