Hi All,

What do people do to insure against damage or loss by baggage handlers when taking your bike to foreign lands?

I dont think my travel insurance covers something of the value of the bike.

Cheers

Home insurance is no good, doesnt cover the value of the bike, and I'm not sure it would cover those risks.

Just wondering if there is some sort of product out there for a reasonable cost - I suspect there isnt.

Does everyone else just take the risk?

AndyL - Thanks, that does appear to cover bikes up to £3k, and the premium is a quite reasonable £30, once I'd reduced the cover on other things I'm not bothered about
