recommendations for bike insurance in UK?

[ray-ez]

Hi all,
does anyone have any recommendations for bike insurance in UK? Cheap cover? Good cover? (I personally hate insurance, but considering the amount of bike thefts in London, i'm thinking of giving in!)

Thanks,
Ray

Found many bike insurances can be more than the car insurance (ouch). I insured through Co-Op / CIS household contents with an additional extension for my 'best' road bike. That plus a couple of other items came to less than £10 per month on top of the contents insurance.
