Pavilion Insurance Network PLC (“Pavilion” or “the Company”) ENTERS INTO PARTERSHIP WITH THE BRITISH CYCLING FEDERATION (BCF)

The product will be marketed under the BC Bike Insurance banner, and will be delivered via a new dedicated web site www.bcbikeinsurance.co.uk and Pavilion’s call centre facilities on a dedicated number 02476 851099.

Pavilion have been exploring the use of its own developed software ISIS (Integrated Specialist Insurance Software), with other partners across their product range. Sarah Gow, (Executive Director of Sales and Customer Service) said “We will be using a similar technology as part of our partnership with the British Cycling Federation linking to everyday leisure cyclists in which BCF have started a new membership drive. In addition to new membership through its Everyday Cycling initiative we are already targeting the existing 20,000 members of the BCF through this association, who are interested in competition cover”

Pavilion has seen significant growth in its range of Cycleguard bicycle insurance products, and reported cycle insurance sales 110% ahead of 2005 in the first quarter.

Chairman and CEO, Andrew Selby said: “We have widened our product offerings in bicycle insurance to encompass more users of bikes both in the commuting, leisure and sports use, and together with our strategic partnerships and a particularly strong demand in urban commuting use, we are seeing very encouraging growth”.
