Travel Insurance for Motorcycle riders

For road and track loving motorcycle riders, the winter represents a frustrating time of poor weather (although the summer is often not much better in the UK) and a distinct lack bike racing. All is not lost, the gloom of winter will begin to lift soon (some of the holidaysafe team managed a few hours out on bikes on Sunday) and with only one month left until the opening round of the World superbikes calendar, there are reasons to be cheerful! Clearly there will not be many Brits lucky enough to make the trip to the Australian opening round, but with no fewer than 18 rounds across the World Superbike and Moto GP championships that we think are definitely rider-able, here is something to look forward to:

For those planning to attend a foreign trip on your bike, regardless if it is for a motorcycle championship, just a dash for some winter sun or a vacation - don’t forget to buy travel insurance which will cover you whilst riding your bike. Many travel insurance policies have exclusions for riding motorcycles with a capacity of more than 125cc. Those that will cover motorcycle riders, many charge an additional premium.
