Insurance is a subject we get asked a lot of questions about so we have created a dedicated page to answer all your questions.
Your British Triathlon licence is compulsory for taking part in a UK triathlon and it will cover you whilst racing for public liability up to £15m. It won’t cover your bicycle should it be damaged during the race or your medical expenses if you hurt yourself. This is especially important to note whilst racing abroad.
Our event day insurance has been created by the team at Yellow Jersey Insurance to cover your race day. Our group policy, if you opt-in, covers you for the re-imbursement of your event entry fee should something unforeseen prevent you from participating (e.g. a new injury). The group policy also covers bikes on the day of the event for damage whilst racing and theft from transition (including overnight).
This is available to purchase when you enter your race, or from the online shop.
Your bicycle is likely to be your biggest investment when you are a triathlete and is therefore worth protecting, especially as it is not typically covered whilst travelling and racing on a home insurance. Yellow Jersey offers a fully comprehensive bicycle insurance policy which you can take out for a short term or on an annual basis. Castle Triathlon customers get 15% off the very comprehensive Ultimate policy which includes:

As a Castle Triathlon customer, you get a 15% discount on their triathlon specific policy which includes:
