In consideration of your accepting this entry, I, the participant (or the parent/guardian of a participant under the age of 18), intending to be legally bound, do hereby waive and forever release any and all rights and claims for damages or injuries that I may have against the Event Director, RunSignup.com, Maryland Avenue Montessori, MAM Fund and the MPS Foundation and all of their agents assisting with the event, sponsors and their representatives, volunteers, and employees, for any and all injuries to me or my personal property. This release includes all injuries and/or damages suffered by me (or my child) before, during, or after the event. I recognize, intend, and understand that this release is binding on my heirs, executors, administrators, or assignees.
I understand that participating in a group biking event is a potentially hazardous activity. I (or my child) should not participate unless physically able to do so and appropriately equipped. I assume all risks associated with riding in this event, including but not limited to: falls, collisions, contact with other participants, the effects of weather, surface conditions, and equipment failure. I waive any and all claims which I might have based on any of those or other typical risks associated with bicycle riding. I acknowledge that all such risks are known and understood by me. I agree to abide by all decisions of event organizers regarding the safe conduct of the event.
I certify that I (or my child) am physically fit and sufficiently trained to participate in this event. In the event of illness, injury, or a medical emergency during the event, I hereby authorize the Event Director to secure from any accredited hospital, clinic, and/or physician any treatment deemed necessary for immediate care. I agree to be fully responsible for any and all costs associated with such medical services, including but not limited to transportation, medication, treatment, and hospitalization.
As it applies to my (or my child's) participation in this event, I agree to abide by current CDC guidance and any local COVID-19 safety protocols in place at the time of the event.
Furthermore, I grant permission to the event organizers and sponsors to use my (or my child’s) name, voice, and image in any photographs, motion pictures, publications, or other media coverage of the event for legitimate promotional purposes.
This event follows the standard community event policy: All entry fees are non-refundable. The event may be postponed or canceled due to circumstances beyond our control such as weather, emergencies, or other safety concerns. No refunds will be issued in these cases. We reserve the right to modify event details without prior notice.
By submitting this entry, I acknowledge that I (or a parent/legal guardian on behalf of a minor under 18) have read and agree to the terms of this waiver and the event’s no-refund policy.
