If under the age of 18, I acknowledge that a legal parent or guardian must be present and agree that I am able to partake in the EVENT.  While participating in the EVENT, I will be using public streets and facilities where many hazards exist and I am aware of and appreciate the risks that may result.  I acknowledge that I, and I alone, am solely responsible for my personal health and safety, and the personal property I bring with me. There is a risk of injury that exists from participation in the EVENT, including the potential for severe dehydration, permanent paralysis and death, and while particular rules, safety initiatives, equipment and personal discipline may reduce this risk, the risk of serious injury does exist.  I KNOWINGLY AND FREELY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS, both known and unknown, associated with participating in EVENT, and, understanding such risks, voluntarily desire to participate in EVENT.  I KNOWINGLY AND FREELY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS of participating in EVENT EVEN IF SUCH RISKS ARISE FROM THE INTENTIONAL OR NEGLIGENT CONDUCT OF THE RELEASEES (defined below) or others, and regardless of whether such risks are covered by my personal health insurance or other types of insurance; and I assume full responsibility for my participation in EVENT.  I acknowledge and agree that I, and I alone, am solely responsible for my personal health and safety and the personal property I bring with me.  I agree that I am physically capable of participating in EVENT. If I am aware of or under treatment for any physical infirmity, ailment or illness, I will obtain my medical care provider’s approval to participate in EVENT and I will maintain personal health insurance while participating in EVENT. I further understand that I may be asked to provide a doctor’s note or other proof that my primary health care provider has permitted me to participate in EVENT. I further understand that, if I do not maintain an average speed of at least 8 miles per hour while participating in EVENT, I may be asked to alter or conclude my ride in order to preserve appropriate safety parameters.  I consent to treatment in the EVENT of an emergency or other incident in which, in the reasonable judgment of the on-site personnel, I require medical care.  I acknowledge that EVENT will communicate via text message should there be an emergency management situation and/or act of god.  I willingly agree to read all of EVENT’s rules of participation and all safety materials provided by EVENT, including specifically all of the information included in the Event Handbook and all related materials.  At all times while participating in EVENT, I willingly agree to abide by all rules and regulations established by the EVENT organizers, staff and support personnel as well as all traffic laws and local vehicle codes and all rules of the road, including but not limited to the following: Helmets must be worn at all times while riding. I agree to wear a properly fitted and adjusted ASTM, ASNI, CPSC or SNELL certified helmet while riding in the EVENT. Obey all traffic signs and signals at all times. Be aware of what’s going on around you at all times. EVENT is conducted on open roads. Motor vehicle traffic will always be present. Ride the advertised and supported route only Ride single file and as far to the right of the road as is safely possible, except to pass. Pass on the left side only. Headphones, iPods and radios are strictly prohibited while riding. Ride defensively in consideration of your fellow riders. Communicate with your fellow riders, using proper cycling terms such as “on your left” and “car back.” Use proper hand signals when turning. Make left turns from the center of the road or left turn lane. Cross railroad tracks at right angles. Do not cross the yellow centerline regardless of the passing zone. When approaching intersections that require vehicles to yield or stop, each cyclist is responsible for verifying that the intersection is clear before proceeding into the intersection. Ride in control of your bike at all times, including being able to stop within a reasonable distance. Be predictable so that riders behind you have fair warning of your actions. Endangering the safety of your fellow riders is strictly prohibited. Obey instructions from all law enforcement personnel. Obey instructions from the EVENT staff, road crew and volunteers. Pay attention to and obey information on all road signs, including all signs posted by EVENT. Speak out when observing a violation. When spoken to, your response should be in appreciation of the concern expressed. When you stop, move well off the road so you don’t interfere with oncoming traffic. When you embark after stopping, yield to oncoming traffic before proceeding into the road. EVENT is not a race and should not be treated as a race at any time or under any circumstances. A bicycle is a legal vehicle in all States and I must ride in a safe manner. I will read the EVENT description and rules for participation in the Event and I will abide by all rules and regulations established by the Event organizers and personnel as well as the local vehicle code. It is my sole responsibility to learn and understand these laws.  I willingly agree to comply with the stated and customary terms and conditions for participation in EVENT.
