If
you cycle with Muggs, and you aren't a member of Bicycle NSW, or have other
comparable 3rd party/public liability cover, you are limiting a fellow Mugg
which might be seriously injured due to your riding cycling negligence, to
litigating your personal assets, rather than litigating you with a large public
liability insurer standing behind you.
So get insured, 'cause "it cuts both ways", as you could be the
injured party faced with litigating empty pockets.
