MBAA + Buddy
Buddy and the Mountain Bike Association of Arizona have teamed up to offer accident insurance to Arizona mountain bikers. Buddy is an insurance agency dedicated to insuring outdoor enthusiasts for whatever adventures come their way. For all policies purchased through this partnership, we will donate 10% of our profit back to organizations dedicated to recreation, sports education, and access.
Why Do You Need Accident Insurance?
A spill on the trail may have a bigger financial impact than you’re expecting. The average individual health insurance deductible is over $4,000. Once you add in copayments, coinsurance, and all of the other nonmedical expenses— like a damaged bike and travel changes— your personal cost of a wreck may leave you in a frustrating position. With protection from Buddy, you can worry less about the cost of an accident and focus on going hard on the singletrack.
- Deductibles have risen 63% year over year.
- Co-insurance requires you to pay a percentage after you've paid your deductible.
- Buddy is the only accident insurance you can buy by the day.
- We pay you directly, and you can use the money how you see fit.
