Being born with a pair of beady eyes was the best thing that ever happened to me.

M & S. Simply the best no hassle cover for bikes. Like Jim says, upto £4000 per bike anywhere in the world.
Crispy replied to lee's discussion 'bike insurance'May 7
Another vote for M&S home insurance and their any item up to £4000 cover.

Have to agree with Jim. We've got ours on our more than house insurance and the extra was only around £20 (haven't got the exact figure to hand) to cover any bike to the value of £1200. Only helps if you've got a house though...
To put into perspective.I pay £308 fully comp for my 2.0ltr 307 Stationwagon and have 6 points on my license.I use it everyday and average 20000plus miles a year. So i'd say £234 a year is steep.

thanks for that i will look into it dose £234 sound expensive
we have extra cover for bikes on our house insurance and costs £100 with the AA
Lee, i reckon your best option is to swap your house insurance. To one that will cover bikes. i use marks and spencer, they cover any 1 bike upto £4000 in and away from home. If i was to insure my bikes seperately it would cost me a fortune. Barcl...

Hi Lee.I forgot that i'm at physio tomorrow(monday) so i won't be able to drop off the bike at lunchtime.
However,i'm at a seminar at Newcastle race course on Tuesday straight after work.So if you let me know what time you finish,i can drop it off on route.
Thanks again for the loan,it was a nice ride in Kielder.Nothing too stressful for my first outing in 3 years.
Cheers Boney.

Hi Lee,just a little reminder that i'll pick the lights up tomorrow lunchtime about 12.30 if that's ok?
Don't think i need to ask if you've charged the lights,or do i?
Cheers Boney.

Cheers Lee for the offer of a ride plus lid.Got a bit concerned when your next post was wether you were going to attend the Kielder ride,but i see you have two bikes.
Are you going to the NEFA night out/meeting next week?If so,we can make arrangements about the bike.
Thanks again.Boney.
