If accepted as a member of the Atlantic Bicycle Club Inc. I agree to
abide by the Constitution and by-laws of the club.
In consideration of the acceptance of my membership
in the Atlantic Bicycle Club, Inc.(hereafter referred to as
"CLUB") I hereby agree to and make the following contractual
representations and agreements.
I fully realize the dangers of participating in
bicycling and fully assume the risks associated with such participation
including by way of example, and not limitation, the following dangers
of collision with pedestrians, vehicles, other bicyclists, and fixed or
moving objects: the dangers arising from surface hazards, equipment
failure, inadequate safety equipment, and weather conditions: and the
possibility of serious physical and or mental trauma or injury
associated with bicycling.
I hereby waive, release, and discharge myself, my
heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, assigns, and
successors in interest (hereinafter collectively "successors"
) any and all rights and claims which I have or which may hereafter
accrue to me against the CLUB, its officers, members, representatives,
assigns, agents, and any and sponsors, for any and all damages which may
be sustained by me directly or indirectly in connection with, or arising
out of, my participation in or association wit, or travel to or return
from any and all Club functions, events or activities.
I agree it is my sole responsibility to be familiar
with planned courses or routes that may be taken and any special rules,
regulations for such activities or functions. I understand and agree
that situations may arise during the activities which may be beyond the
immediate control of the organizers, and I must continually conduct
myself so as to neither endanger myself or others. I accept
responsibility for the condition and adequacy of my equipment. I have no
physical or mental condition which, to my knowledge, would endanger
myself and successors, that the above representations are contractually
binding, and are not mere recitals, and that should I or my successors
assert any claim contravention of this agreement, I or my successors
shall be liable for the expenses ( including legal fees ) incurred by
the other party or parties in defending, unless the other party or
parties are finally adjudged liable on such claim for willful and wanton
negligence. This agreement may not be modified orally, and a waiver of
any provision shall not be construe a modification of any other
provision herein or as a consent to any subsequent waiver of
modification.
