Forwarding some disappointing news. Bell's Angels were not able to secure insurance for their event. It is not clear at this time if this is going to become a major problem in 2003. :think:
Also the Bremerton Cruisers have cancelled their event at Tahuya. I'm not sure this is the case this year, but that club often will survey the trail conditions and choose whether or not to hold their event based on likely impact to the trails. :thumb:
Is there anyone with connections in the insurance industry? There have been few claims on the many events insured over the years. Event insurance seems like a cash cow for some company willing to bother. BTW, these policies are to cover only nonparticipants. Event participants sign waivers and are on their own.
