Do the London Cycling Campaign still offer third party liability insurance to members?
Edit: Yes, they do: https://lcc.org.uk/membership/
Up to £5 million for £55 a year membership.

Third party liability
Since I'm not renewing my BC membership (Shell!) I need cover for third party liability.
There is Cycling UK, but I'm not keen on them since thay have, in effect, destroyed the worthy organisation of the CTC.
Most of the other 'insurers' (brokers, surely?) offer a limit of £2 million, which doesn't seem enough in these inflationary times. Did you hear the story about the pedestrian who was knocked over by a motorist - not badly hurt, but he landed on his hand and lightly damaged one finger. This ended his career as a leading concert pianist! (Tragedy at Law, Cyril Hare)
I'm not really interested in insuring my bikes since their value is sentimental, but I am concerned about the (admittedly remote) possibility of damaging the wrong person in the wrong way.
Any suggestions?
