Owen posted back in June about this, but I wanted to bring it up again. Much discussion in the LD community has been about the Medjet Assist program. It is required for most of the longer rallies (IBR, Buttlite VI, 10n10) and seems to be a good idea all around. Medjet Assist is an insurance/retainer program that will transport you from anywhere in the world to your home hospital (or whatever hospital you want). If you get the correct coverage, they will also transport your motorcycle from anywhere in North America (Cont. US, Alaska, Canada, Mexico - not sure about Hawaii) to your local dealer. Coverage is $250 annually and there is available short term contracts also. I believe some memberships (BMWMOA, IBA) provide some discounts. http://medjetassist.com/membership/motorcycleprotection.aspx I will be getting the annual this year. Mostly for the Alaska trip, but the incremental costs from a 3 week membership to annual makes it a no-brainer. RR

I have seen the burden of getting an injured rider and his equipment home after an accident. The logistics and expense can be overwhelming for family members. I carry a membership with MedJet Assist. They offer a medical repatriation service to get the rider and his bike back home in an expedient manner from anywhere in the world. I can not say enough good things about this service. Check them out. Disclaimer: I have no association with this company other than I have seen them in action and highly recommend them.
