bicycle accident insurance?
hello
any suggestions on bicycle accident insurance? I am not looking for home contents theft cover insurance but for bicycle riding insurance to cover the cost of bicycle repair or replacement in unfortunate event of a riding accident etc. Bicycle Victoria no longer offer it, only as part of total house contents insurance which I do not want. thanks |

I would not bother with insurance for bicycle unless a) it was for theft and
you really locked it up well so insurance company had to pay out if it got stolen or damaged in attempted theft, or b) it was really expensive (like some thousands of $) and you thought it highly likely that you were gonna crash it someday sooner rather than later, and would the insurance company cover A or B at reasonable rates. If not then you could just save up the cash over time instead of paying premiums and would have the money when you want to buy a new bike. I would get other types of insurance instead. I have free third party and third party property insurance as a member of BQ and have just upgraded my membership of BQ to include paid coverage for personal injury insurance. If your bike is damaged in an accident by someone elses negligence then if you can get their details and pass to the police then the police may ask the person to pay for damages, I'm just guessing. Or perhaps you could sue through small claims tribunal if a traffic infringement was successfully prosecuted against the negligent party, I'm still just guessing.

What? They don't? They still do the insurance against personal injury, don't they? -- TimC -- http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/staff/tconnors/ Black holes are where God divided by zero. -- Steven Wright |

Then you get everything. |
