These risks, dangers and hazards include but are not limited to: mechanical failure of the equipment; changing weather conditions; collision with natural or manmade objects including but not limited to exposed rock, earth, trees, stumps or branches on or adjacent to the mountain biking terrain; collision or encounters with other cyclists, vehicles; negligence of other cyclists or participants; and NEGLIGENCE ON THE PART OF STURDY BITCH RACING AND STURDY DIRTY INC. (COLLECTIVELY “SBR”), OR THEIR STAFF, INCLUDING THE FAILURE ON THE PART OF SBR TO SAFEGUARD OR PROTECT ME FROM THE RISKS, DANGERS AND HAZARDS OF MOUNTAIN BIKING AND ASSOCIATED ACTIVITIES. I am voluntarily participating in mountain biking and associated activities. I freely accept and fully assume all such risks, dangers and hazards and the possibility of personal injury, death or property damage and loss resulting therefrom due to any cause whatsoever and without limitation.
In consideration of SBR allowing me to participate in the Sturdy Dirty Enduro 2025 (the “Event”) and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, I hereby agree as follows:
