Hi All
This is something I'm going to take up with Endsleigh on Monday but thought I'd throw it open to you lot for some feedback.
I want to get insured against 3rd party claims with regards commuting to work on my mountain bike. This is with regards to injury and damage to property (touch wood I never need it!)

Do you think I'd be covered under "private pursuits" or is that just too vague and I'd be better off getting specific insurance to cover me on my bicycle?
By the way, I'm not bothered about damage to the bike or the bike getting stolen, it's not worth enough to warrant that kind of concern really.
