Members and friends, see the column piece below in relation to an accident in Sydney involving a cyclist and a pedestrian which has generated significant interest on social media. We agree liability cover for bike riders is a great idea - hence why we include it in our standard Bicycle Queensland membership package. As a point of clarification, it is important to note that our insurer will not pay in circumstances where any injury is directly or indirectly caused or contributed to by, or is the consequence of an injured person engaging in illegal activities at the time of the injury or not complying with the road laws and/or legislation applicable to the State which they are cycling in. We strongly encourage members to be familiar with the terms of their Bicycle Queensland insurance through Cyclecover.
