VELOSURANCE STORY
It all started over tacos.
Velosurance is a national insurance program founded by two avid cyclists, Dave Williams and Denis Voitenko in response to the insurance needs of bicycle riders nationwide.
One very rainy day at a local taco joint in Fort Lauderdale we started discussing how badly home and renters policies insured bicycles. We knew there had to be a better way so we set about finding out how we could take a traditional piece of insurance and make it better, much better. On that wet day over tacos, Velosurance was founded.
We partnered with Markel American Insurance Company, an A.M. Best, A rated, US insurance company, and a leader in recreational insurance, to offer a multi-risk bicycle insurance policy providing protection to all types of cyclists, and with none of the silly restrictions that other insurance wants to place on riders.
OUR MISSION
We are riders too.
Bicycle prices increase every year and cyclists who are serious about their sport are spending big money on high value bikes. Other forms of insurance, like homeowners and renters insurance, do a poor job insuring high value bicycles so we founded Velosurance to fix that.
Velosurance provides a stand-alone, no bike value depreciation, bicycle insurance policy to replace the cobbled together, sub standard coverages offered by traditional insurance.
We are cyclists just like you, and we understand that when your bike gets damaged in an accident you want the shortest possible downtime. We make it our mission to see that your claim check arrives before the repair parts do and you get back pedaling as soon as you want to.
The Velosurance mission is to be fair to everyone involved, and to offer our best advice to clients so they can make an educated decision about their bicycle insurance coverage. We also like to ride as much as possible.
WHY VELOSURANCE IS BEST FOR YOUR BICYCLE
Not all types of insurance are created equal. Velosurance levels the playing field by offering a stand-alone bicycle insurance policy where claims will not affect your homeowner or renters policy premiums.
COVERAGES & FEATURES
The coverage issued through Velosurance is a multi-risk policy with the option to add additional coverage to protect the cycle owner against many types of losses. You choose the coverages to customize your individual policy.
Velosurance Cyclist Insurance Policy is a stated value, replacement cost, all risk policy. That is insurance talk for “we insure your bike for the value you tell us and we replace new for old if it gets damaged or lost and if we don’t tell you it’s excluded, then it is covered” All bicycle insurance claims are submitted directly to Velosurance. We then provide the insurance company claim department with a complete claim file and follow each claim to it’s satisfactory resolution.
