Hi,
Basically a friend of mine's bicycle insurer wont cover him abroad, and we've been struggling to find a temporary cover for a weeks cycling in the Italian Alps in august. His bicycles worth around £1500. We're massively uncertain of what the best thing to do would be.

Any help would be massively appreciated!!
Thanks.
