Assumption Of Risk: I understand that bicycling and traveling have risks which CAN and sometimes DO result in bodily injury or death to its participants. I understand that I can be injured or killed EVEN IF I DO EVERYTHING CORRECTLY. Nonetheless, I am accepting this risk and release Ibike of all responsibility in order to participate. I certify that I am aware of all of the basic safety rules for such activities.

In consideration of, and as part payment for, the right to participate in such trips and other activities and the services and food arranged for by Ibike and their agents and associates, I have and do hereby assume all of the above risks and will hold them harmless from any and all liability, action, causes of action, debt, claims and demands of every kind and nature whatsoever, which I now have or which may arise in connection with my trip or participation in any other activities arranged for me by Ibike and their agents or associates. The terms hereof shall serve as release and assumption of risk from my heirs, executors and administrators and for all members of my family, including any minors accompanying me.

No Insurance Coverage: I understand that Ibike carries no insurance of any kind; no medical insurance, no liability insurance, no property damage insurance and no wage loss insurance. If I am hurt or killed I or my survivors cannot seek compensation from Ibike for any insurance or other payments of any sort.

Acceptance Of Responsibility For Health & Safety: I understand that a medical doctor has not been employed by Ibike to determine my physical ability or readiness to bicycle or travel. I have been advised to consult independent medical advice before participating in this program. I agree to be fully responsible for my own training. I release Ibike from any responsibility for my physical condition or my skill as a bicyclist or traveler. I understand that it is not the function of Ibike, the participants, agents or employees to serve as the guardian of my safety. I also understand that I am to furnish my own equipment and that I am responsible for its good operating condition regardless of where I obtain it.

Photo Release: I authorize the use by Ibike, or anyone authorized by them, of any and all photographs taken of myself while participating in this program, without further compensation.
