Mountain Biking Insurance

Mountain Biking Insurance

As a perennial favourite amongst adrenalin junkies, mountain biking remains a popular pursuit regularly enjoyed by thousands of Brits each week. Not only is it a great way to improve fitness, but it also offers opportunities to get out into the countryside and gain a different perspective on the spectacular scenery. However, the risks associated with the activity are considerable, which is one of the reasons why signing up for Insure4Sport's mountain biking insurance is a good idea.

Cover for you

It can be argued that compared to other types of cycling, there are greater risks of injury when mountain biking. It’s likely that it’s the thrill of pushing your body and bike to extremes that makes you love the sport so much, but unfortunately accidents do happen. Although nobody likes to think about injuries happening to them, it really does pay to have a specialised mountain biking insurance policy.

When speeding down a mountain there can be many obstacles to avoid: trees, boulders and large drops. You could very easily do yourself some damage. Usually it’s just cuts and grazes but it’s not uncommon to hear of broken collar bones and wrists or for mountain bikers to suffer from lower back pain. If you were to injure yourself to the point where you were unable to go to work, our loss of earnings policy option can offer a weekly allowance of up to £750.

Cover for your mountain bike

More likely however is that it’s your bike or accessories that get damaged and need replacing. Whether that is a buckled wheel, damage to your bike frame or breaking your expensive action camera, with an Insure4Sport specialised mountain biking insurance policy you have the peace of mind to continue on your way knowing that you are covered for all eventualities that may occur.
