If your organization joins the League of American Bicyclists, you can get affordable insurance through American Specialty. You can purchase coverage for activities related to bicycle refurbishment. They offer coverage for Directors for $550/year. You can find details at www.amerspec.com/lab

We don't have the Directors coverage (we have nonprofit status under a fiscal sponsor). Otherwise I think we have appropriate and affordable coverage under them.
