Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 5, 2009 Share the insurance thing shouldn't be a problem unless you're a "professional" cyclist who does races all the time, or an elite cyclist. Even then, cycling is hardly a "dangerous pursuit"... all the "at own risk" thing is, is absolving the Cycle Tour Trust and the Chappies maintenance team from any liability should you come a-croppa due to a rather large, un-social carbon-based shpongle falling on top of you. Standard insurance will cover, and in the case of non-recreational cyclists, will cover as long as you've notified said life office (insurer) that you're a professional cyclist, taking part in x amount of races per year. Even then, there shouldn't be an exclusion. Add to that that the indemnity will be pretty much the same as the ones Motorsport SA make all spectators at rallies and hillclimbs sign - just so that you can't sue THEM for negligence... Hope this little rant clears things up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
