[#4209333]

I'm off for a week with themountainbikechalet.com next week and I'm just wondering which of the dogtag insurance levels I'll need? Recreational MTB is covered under the basic policy, but downhill is in the "extreme" category. Whilst we'll be going downhill, it won't be "Downhill" if you see what I mean 🙂

What do other STWers get?

TIA

We have extreme, just making sure.... We are not extreme trough, but you know what insurance companies are like...

What's the difference in price?

Downhill with dogtag implies using uplift of one form or another, if I remember correctly. I know I went extreme last time.

Best discuss it with the insurance company and get written confirmation from them. Your/STW interpretation may be different from the insurer and it is theirs that counts at the end of the day.

The difference is £20 (~£30 to ~£50)

We'll be using the lifts, so I guess that must be downhilling then.

Yeah, I suspect it’s to factor in the proportion of your time you will be descending which in fairness is usually when bad helicopter necessitating stuff happens...
