Legal & Insurance

Benefits to members

No matter how good a cyclist you are, you cannot control who you share the road with. However, you can take control of who provides your cycling protection package. At British Cycling we offer legal assistance and liability insurance to our Gold and Silver members** that other cycling bodies simply can't match.

The results speak for themselves:

• £4.8 million recovered on behalf of members in the last two years 
  Case examples
• £ zero paid out by members in costs on claims in the same period 
  Claim examples

** Please note that Bronze members are not entitled to any legal assistance or insurance benefits.
