Holiday Insurance (USA) ????

[David Ryan]

A friend and I are off to the Smoky Mountains in September
We are hiring a couple of bikes and going touring for a couple of weeks
If something unfortunate were to happen, we don't want to find ourselves facing huge medical bills!
Can anyone recommend a suitable insurance policy / provider that will comprehensively cover us, including the riding of motorcycles?

Holiday Safe Bikers Policy was my choice

Marks and Spencer seems good to me.

Very clear policy booklet, and covers motorcycle use.

Make sure you read the fine print. All of it.

Post Office

Someone posted yesterday, on a long running insurance thread - that Post Office were limiting cover to bikes <1,500cc.

Won't make a difference to most, but worth knowing about

Should cut out a lot of claims on Route 66...

Thanks guys. I'll have a look at all of those.

also Direct Travel http://www.direct-travel.co.uk/ - they have an easy to use quote system if you have any medical conditions to declare and the extra premiums aren't too high either

American Express will cover you on any bike as long as you have a relevant bike licence and are wearing a helmet. Annual family cover for 4 worldwide for one year was £140. Any bike, any pillion...

One thing to watch out for - is that the wording of the policy doesn't state that the use of the motorcycle must be "incidental to the travel/holiday" - which would preclude cover where you are on a motorbike holiday.

Conversely, some policies only cover bikes if they are used as your main method of travel.

AXA just did mine covered everything as long as I had a helmet on ..

Looks like I have plenty to go on there!
Thanks again

Had a quick look and they seem competative.

We used www.fernet.com last year. Seemed competitive. Can't speak for the claims service - fortunately!
