Regarding McKay Insurance:
I have known the owner, Dan McKay for at least 20 years. Has built a niche business insuring bike events from cross-state tours to MTB races, bike clubs, and one-day rides. The agency is in Knoxville, Iowa, a county-seat town near Des Moines Web address: http://www.silentsportsinsurance.com/About.aspx Phone: 641.842.2135 Toll Free: 800.942.0283 insurance@mckayinsagency.com
Dan's business has grown after he wrote the first insurance policy for RAGBRAI and then created the Ride Right Committee of cyclists to improve safety on RAGBRAI
I believe they are one of the firms recommended by the Alliance for Biking & Walking.
Scott Ziller is Dan's son-in-law.
They are honest and knowledgeable.

Scott and I are members of Bicycle Longmont in Longmont Colorado. We're looking for insurance for our fundraiser cruiser ride - the G'Knight Ride. www.gknightride.org. We have insurance through LAB, but not special event insurance.

Hi all from Colorado!
We are looking for a new insurance underwriter and agent for special event insurance. Our old agent, RV Nuccio, no longer writes in Colorado, and we have had great coverage with them in the past. The policy was underwritten by Western Heritage Ins. Co. under the Nat'l Alliance of Special Event Planners. The American Specialty Ins. Co. rates and coverage listed by the League seems in now way competitive with a crazy high rate.
We have a community bike event coming up in June and are looking for some leads for special event insurance (liability). The event is not a race, just a big cruiser ride with an expo, etc. At the expo/festival we will be selling beer as part of the fundraiser, so need liquor liability to cover as well.
Anyone have any leads for agents for this insurance plan or other crazy good rates? Thanks!
