Travel Insurance For Cycling in EU?

[Nomadski]

Am doing the French Revolution which requires riders to have travel insurance.

Have looked at a few but even those listing Cycling as a covered activity, bizarrely dont cover personal liability and accident while doing said activity...

Anyone know of a good, cheap travel insurance for one day that is cyclist friendly for France?

If you are looking for 3rd party insurance, you can get £10 million of cover worldwide (except US and Canada) by joining CTC as an affiliate member. It costs £16 pa from memory.

Wiggle require actual travel insurance. I'm not sure if CTC would be considered that? Most travel insurance I have looked at don't cover damages or liability when cycling abroad, so it seems to be a catch 22.

You could get the 3rd Party cover from CTC and also get a travel insurance policy from somebody else.

I've got post office travel insurance. The personal liability excludes motorised and mechanical vehicles, but I don't think cycles are included in that category

CTC do a one-off holiday insurance which covers all of this?

I have insurance through my bank card which covers me and my luggage and medical expenses but, bizarely not my bike so that's on the house insurance with the NFU.
