Hi Guys,

I'm finally moving into my own gaff next Friday (its been a long two years after my divorce kipping on the old dear's sofa lol) so I need to get my house insurance sorted.

At the mo, I'm paying for insurance cover on my Rockhoper Pro through cycleguard, but was wondering whether any of you could recommend a decent policy which covers my home as well as my bike...the other good news is that I've finally paid off my MTB through the C2W so can think about getting my road bike now... CAAD 9 it is me thinks.

Any recommendations?

    According to many on Veloriders, Marks & Spencer do the best home contents insurance including bikes.

    HI John, insurance came up quite a few times at the start of 2010 so it might be worth using the search tool if you don't get many tips.

    Marks and Spencers +1

    £4k - any item - can extend to cover away from the home.

    Im no expert - but on reading the fine print - the dedicated cycle insurance policies - seem to be full of that many exemptions - that you would never be able to make a claim

    +2 for M&S :wink:
    Start with a budget, finish with a mortgage!
  • +3 for M&S. I checked a number of other home insurance policies over the past few years and M&S are by far the best for cycle cover at little extra premium.
