BUT the basic rules of polite and civil conduct which everyone agreed to when signing up for the HUBB, will still apply, though moderation will be a LITTLE looser than elsewhere on the HUBB.

Hello, and welcome to the HUBB community.

The "civil insurance" you are seeking is commonly called "3rd party liability" insurance, and almost all countries in the world require that motor vehicles carry 3rd party liability insurance. For example, in Ontario, Canada, motorists must be insured for a minimum of $200,000 liability. In Quebec, the minimum required is $50,000.

If you are riding in Western & Central Europe (the EC countries), you can purchase a policy that provides the minimum legally required amount of 3rd party liability insurance for about 20 countries. Elsewhere, you need to purchase insurance on a country-by-country basis, usually at insurance kiosks that are present at the border crossing into a country.

We have a whole sub-forum here on the HUBB dedicated to trip paperwork & insurance. Here's a link to it: Trip Paperwork. Go make a coffee, and settle in for about an hour of reading in that sub-forum. By the time you are finished, you should have a pretty good idea of how things work, and where you can purchase the insurance.

Be aware, though, that it is normally only possible to purchase a policy that provides the minimum legally required amount of 3rd party liability. Whether or not that is enough to make you feel you are adequately protected will depend on what your net worth is - in other words, how much you have got to lose.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
