Comprehensive bike riding insurance
Medical coverage
We’ll cover expenses that others don’t – including dental, orthodontic, physiotherapy, and even acupuncture as long as you provide a reference from a qualified medical practitioner.
Income protection
If you’re injured on your bike or can’t work after an incident, we’ll pay up to 85% of your weekly earnings for 52 weeks.
Third party coverage
For any damage to another person’s property or injury caused to them, you’ll just need to pay the first $1,000 and we’ll take it from there.
