Hi all,
I'm camped near T1 home and arrived on Monday ~3 pm, parked about 50m away stayed at at Terry's till 9 pm. returned to Terry's next day till 10 pm. Got up next morning went to fix my invertor [in the boot] and found an empty bike rack. Some low life had come along with bolt cutters and cut the 10mm cable and absconded with my pride and joy. Since found out from Eddie it was missing when he took his dogs for a walk yesterday, so it was stolen Monday night [unless it went in broad daylight].
I have reported it to "The Police Assistance Line" It was a White EZY Commuter foldable costing $1590.00 minus the battery [still in the 5'er]
Contacting Ken Tame to see if it covered by Insurance.

PH,
Does this mean if my spare wheel or jerry cans on the back of the van gets nicked, they are not covered? Thats a bit tough.


Good Luck,

Bill

I suggest that the spares are part of the van, but the jerries are not.
Not 'tough', just check the policy.

Cheers,
Peter

certainly check as most policies will cover it up to a limit ( possibly $2,000 per item) under non specified items.

ya know, ive heard it said b4 that if a phone is locked in the glove box and goes missing, its not covered, but if it is left in the hands free cradle, it is part of the car and covered.....if the bike was on a rack, locked on said rack....it should be covered as part of the van. Read your PDS thoroughly
