Cyclists - Is Your Bike Registered?

With the current credit crunch many people are now taking to cycling as a means of transport, as it is a cheap way of getting around. How many of you have either insured or registered your bicycle? As with most things, now that cycling has become more popular stealing bicycles has become more popular. In an attempt to reduce the numbers, an office has been set up in Alicante for cyclists to register their bikes. In the next few weeks the website will be also be available www.biciregistro.es to take registrations online, or as an alternative most authorised cycle shops will do the registration for you. It is always worth checking with your house insurer if your bikes are covered, or if they can be covered (sometimes an optional extra). Another consideration when cycling is Public Liability Insurance. If you have an accident and cause damage or injury to someone else this would cover you. Annual premiums from as little as 37.59euros. If you have any questions on cycling cover, do not hesitate to contact us for help and advice.
