I recently discovered if you have Strava Premium membership there is an absolutely free insurance policy that covers broken devices and taxi fares if broken down due to accident or mechanical failure. It's carefully hidden in your account under 'Members' Perks' and has to be activated for cover.
Taxi fares up to £30 can be claimed for travel to your home address or bike shop in the event of a mechanical failure (not punctures) or accidents. T&Cs apply.
In the event of an Accident or where your bicycle cannot be ridden due to mechanical failure (other than noted under Exclusions), we will
reimburse you up to the Cover Limit for the cost of transporting you and your bicycle to a public transport station, bicycle repair shop or your
home, whichever is the nearest and most reasonable at the time of the Accident or mechanical failure.
- Cover is conditional on you tracking this cycling activity on Strava at the time of the Accident/mechanical failure of your bicycle.
- You must provide us with a copy of the receipt/proof of payment for the trip. We may request additional information to verify your claim
£350 towards the cost of a damaged device (GPS). Again T&Cs apply.
We will cover your Device, up to the Cover Limit, for the lesser of the repair or Replacement Cost of your Device where it is damaged as the result of
an Accident and your bicycle is damaged and/or you need medical treatment, occurring anywhere in the UK during the period of insurance.
- Cover is conditional that you were tracking a Strava cycling activity on the Device at the time of the Accident which causes damage to the Device.
- Accident is defined as a sudden, unforeseen and unintended event.
- Device is defined as a mobile phone, GPS cycle computer or GPS sports watch.
- Replacement Cost is defined as the lesser of the current recommended retail price (RRP); or the market price that the Device was last advertised,
if it is no longer available to purchase as new.
- In the event of a claim you must provide us with a copy of your proof of purchase of the Device.
For those that run there is also reimbursement for entry cancellation due to illness or injury up to £75.
Get activating!!
