Travel insurance for overseas competitions
Hi,
I'm entering my first international event, the Vanuatu Adventure Race. I'm having trouble finding a suitable travel insurance and I'm hoping someone here has a suggestion. All of the policies I have looked at (>20 of them!) have specific exclusions for anything resulting from participation in any race other than a foot race. As an adventure race includes mtb (and kayaking etc) these policies won't cover me for any medical treatment, evacuation or income loss if I am hurt during the race.
Interesting concept from Giant Bikes re: sponsor a 'real' rider vs sponsor a pro
Came across this today whilst kicking about youtube.

Bicycle NSW Environmental Trust Video Competition
Just got this in
The BNSW Environmental Trust Video Competition invites budding film makers from across Australia to create a 5 minute video to promote bike riding as a sustainable, healthy and environmentally friendly form of transport and recreation.
There are lots of ways to get started, for example, you can use a helmet cam and filming your trip to work or school, or you can do a full production, it is up to you and remember your film does not have to have a dialogue.
Safer Cycling Study by UNSW
I spotted this URL https://safercycling.unsw.edu.au/Login.aspx on a cycle path notice board in Naremburn tonight when I went for a run.
I thought some of you folk might be interested in participating in the study conducted by UNSW. This is taken from their website:
Welcome to the Safer Cycling Study. A place where your contribution will create a safer place for cyclists in NSW.
Craig Gordon in hit-and-run?
It has just been posted up on Rotorburn that Gordo got hit by a car in a hit-and-run yesterday somewhere west and broke his back and is presently in hospital. Apparently has feeling back in his hands and feet but can't remember much.
If true, please accept my wishes and prayers for a quick recovery, mate.
If anyone can confirm and has more details, would be grateful if you could post some info.
