There is a lot to organise when you go on a cycling holiday. Insurance is not the first thing you think about. If you go cycling in the mountains you are usually quite fit, so the combination of cycling holiday and insurance does not sound logical.
Why take out insurance?
Many clients ask us for insurance with full coverage for the rented bike. Unfortunately we cannot offer this, because we cannot take out insurance for rented bikes in Spain. We do offer partial insurance, which covers material damage to the bike up to a maximum of 500 euros. Theft is not covered.
Which insurance then?
We advise all customers to take out good travel and cancellation insurance. Clients sometimes have to cancel the entire cycling holiday due to personal or work circumstances and want a refund of the costs incurred, for example a down payment on the rental. We provide an invoice for the costs, which they can submit to their insurance company.
On the spot, all sorts of things can happen too. Someone has an accident or a fall. Apart from the personal consequences, a damaged rental bike often means a lot of costs: it has to be repaired and sometimes cannot be rented out for a while. The right travel insurance often reimburses these costs.
Carefree cycling holiday
A carefree holiday starts with good preparation. We do that by delivering a high-quality road bike, and by thinking along with clients before the holiday. With good travel and cancellation insurance, nothing stands in the way of a wonderful holiday on the bike.
