Can't get insurance outside of UK

Hi all,

My AA travel insurance runs out in feb but want to remain out here until May - tried Navigator but seems to be no one offers to sell you cover if you're already out of the UK - any suggestions would be welcome!

Cheers!

There may be a good answer to my question...........

Can you not just renew your current AA insurance?

Don't think I am able to renew it, that's my lot - a year. World Nomads do not insure for motorcycle travel (no idea why they are advertised on the HUBB!), well not at least for UK citizens. Post Office and Navigator will not insure me due to not being in the UK either

Any ideas?

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.
