    I have a Fortis Policy that covers bikes and they paid out when the good lady wife and I came off after a front puncture in France last year.

    Carole Nash does a policy but does not cover business travel, which I needed, which is why I went with Fortis.

    See Bikesure's reply to my questions. Without going into policy details it does seem to cover most stuff.

    Certainly ring a specialist bike broker. My business insurance broker could not find a single policy that covered bikes over 125cc.

    Re: Holiday Insurance

    I've just returned from a tour of Ireland, got the policy from Carole Nash, £50.00 approx and the knowledge that it's from a bike specialist.

    Did'nt need it though

    You're gonna have a great time
