The insurer would be obligated to pay the claim. Therre is no contractual insurance stipulation that bicycles are not an allowed method of conveyance. The only thing Starbucks legal dept and their insurer would require is the money "messenger" use a private conveyance and the money bag be a secured safety satchel.
Regardless, the employer makes the rules. It's up to the employee to follow them or find a new job.
