I certify I am physically fit, have sufficiently trained for
participation in this event, and have not been advised otherwise by a qualified medical person. I acknowledge a
bike ride carries with it the potential for serious injury, property loss, and death. The risks include, but are
not limited to, those caused by terrain, water and road conditions, weather, condition of rider’s equipment, vehicular
traffic, actions of participants, volunteers, spectators, and/or producers of the event, and lack of hydration.
I HEREBY ASSUME THE RISKS OF PARTICIPATING IN THE RIDE FOR MISSING CHILDREN GCD 2010 (“the Ride”).
I hereby take action for myself, my executors, administrators, heirs and next of kin, successors and assigns as
noted below.
a) RELEASE AND DISCHARGE the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (“NCMEC”), sponsors of this event,
event directors, volunteers, law enforcement, all cities and municipalities in which the event is conducted, and
all affiliated organizations, individuals and entities (and all of their respective officers, directors, agents,
employees, and members) (“Parties”) from any and all liability, and waive my rights with respect to any and all
claims for damages for death, personal injury or property damage, including but not limited to, medical bills,
lost wages, pain and suffering, attorney’s fees, and court costs, which I may have, or which may hereafter accrue
to me as a result of my participation in this event or traveling to this event, even though this liability may
arise through no fault of my own, or from the negligence or carelessness on the part of the Parties, from dangerous
or defective property or equipment owned, maintained, or controlled by the Parties or because of the Parties’ possible
liability without fault;
b) INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS the Parties from any and all liabilities or claims made by other individuals or
entities as a result of my actions during The Ride, and in any other activities connected with The Ride in which
I may participate;
c) UNDERSTAND, ACKNOWLEDGE, AND AGREE that my name, photograph, voice, or likeness may be used by the Parties and/or
their licensees. I consent to and authorize in advance such use and waive any rights of privacy and/or publicity
I may have in connection therewith.
I hereby consent to receive medical treatment that may be deemed advisable in the event of injury, accident, and/or
illness during the Ride.
I understand weather, emergencies, or other issues of public safety may cause cancellation or postponement of this
event. I hold the Parties harmless should such cancellation or postponement occur, and I understand no contributions,
payments, or expenses will be refunded.
I hereby give my consent to the organizers of The Ride and their agents or representatives, to transport my bicycle(s)
and do hereby release the Parties from any claims for damage to my bicycle during transport, including scratches
to paint, broken components, changes in the tuning of components, any or all damage, or theft. I will inform said
representatives of any special instructions for my bicycle.
I understand if any provision of this Waiver of Negligence and Complete Release of Liability is invalid, illegal,
or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, it is to that extent to be deemed omitted. The remainder
of this Waiver of Negligence and Complete Release of Liability shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent
possible.
I certify that I have read, understand, and
agree to this Waiver of Negligence and Complete Release of Liability.
