Why is trials riding growing in popularity?

Investment in cycling facilities in Britain is poor – street trials relies on no more than the correct type of bike and the urban landscape. Oh, and lots and lots of practice. There are parallels with ‘parkour’, a discipline that involves running, jumping and climbing, primarily in built-up urban environments, and that first started in the suburbs of Paris.

Who needs cycle insurance?

You don’t have to be performing wild stunts to need cycle insurance – bikes are vulnerable to theft and in the case of an accident you may need to seek compensation or even deal with a claim by someone else. Cycle insurance from the ETA is fully comprehensive.

At no extra cost, it includes new-for-old replacement, cover for accidental damage, third party insurance, personal accident cover and if you breakdown, we will even come out and recover you and your bike.
