I acknowledge that participating in the organized training for and participating in an organized long-distance cycling event (which may include participation by tandem cyclists and hand cyclists) such as training for and(or) participating in the CAF Cycling Club group rides, the Million Dollar Challenge, the Back to Back Century Challenges, or other organized CAF Cycling Club Event (each, an “Event”) IS AN EXTREME TEST OF A PERSON’S PHYSICAL AND MENTAL CAPABILITIES AND CARRIES WITH IT A RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH AND(OR) PROPERTY LOSS. I certify that I am physically fit, have properly prepared for the training for and(or) participation in such Event, and have not been advised against such training and(or) participation by any qualified health professional. I acknowledge and understand that the willingness of the Challenged Athletes Inc., a California public benefit corporation doing business as the Challenged Athletes Foundation, (the “Foundation”) and the various Event sponsors, organizers and administrators of the Event(s) (collectively the “Organizers”) to permit my participation in the training for the Event(s) or the Event(s) themselves, is expressly conditioned on my execution and delivery of this Waiver and Release, and I further acknowledge that the Foundation and the Organizers will rely upon the statements made by me herein.

I HEREBY EXPRESSLY ASSUME ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MY PARTICIPATING IN THE ORGANIZED TRAINING FOR AND PARTICIPATING IN THE EVENT(S) including, but not limited to: falls; hazards posed by spectators or other participants; the effects of the weather (including temperature extremes and humidity); defective equipment; the surface condition of the roads and sidewalks; the danger of collision with pedestrians, vehicles, other Event participants, and fixed or moving objects; and water hazards, all such risks being understood and appreciated by me; and I further acknowledge that these risks include risks that may be the result of active or passive negligence of the Released Parties (defined below) or of other persons or entities. The foregoing assumption of risk is intended to be construed to include the broadest possible range of risks, whether such risks are inherent risks of training for or participation in the Event(s) themselves or otherwise. I am familiar with and shall use the safety equipment customarily used by participants in organized sporting events such as the Event, and I EXPRESSLY ASSUME THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH my failure to use such safety equipment or my use of defective or inappropriate safety equipment.

In consideration for allowing me to participate in the organized training in preparation for the Event(s) and for allowing me to participate in the Event(s) themselves, on behalf of myself, my successors and assigns, my administrators and anyone else who may sue on my behalf: (1) I shall abide by any decision of an Event official relative to my ability to complete this Event safely and I further agree that Event officials, Event volunteers (including without limitation all training volunteers) may, but are not obligated to, authorize necessary emergency treatment for me during the course of the Event and/or provide First Aid and/or medical assistance to me (and I hereby consent to such First Aid and/or medical assistance); (2) I acknowledge that the bicycle portion of the Event is a bicycle ride and not a bicycle race and that no other portion of the Event constitutes a race; (3) I shall observe and obey all traffic laws, signs and signals along the Event course; (4) I shall immediately contact the Foundation should any qualified health professional advise that I not train for and(or) participate in the Event(s); and (5) I HEREBY WAIVE, RELEASE, AND FOREVER DISCHARGE THE RELEASED PARTIES (DEFINED BELOW) FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, OBLIGATIONS, LIABILITIES, CAUSES OF ACTION, SUITS, DEBTS, LIENS, DAMAGES, JUDGMENTS, LOSSES, DEMANDS, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ATTORNEYS’ FEES) OF ANY KIND AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH CLAIMS ARE CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”), WHICH MAY ARISE OUT OF, RESULT FROM, OR RELATE TO, WHETHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY: (A) MY PARTICIPATION IN ORGANIZED TRAINING EVENTS RELATED TO THE EVENT(S), INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MY TRAVELING TO AND FROM SUCH EVENT TRAINING, (B) MY PARTICIPATION IN THE EVENT(S), INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MY TRAVELING TO AND FROM THE EVENT(S), AND (C) ON ACCOUNT OF ANY INJURY TO MY PERSON, OR PROPERTY, INCLUDING INJURY LEADING TO MY DEATH, WHILE I AM TRAINING FOR OR PARTICIPATING IN ANY EVENT(S) ORGANIZED BY THE FOUNDATION, THE ORGANIZERS OR ANY OF THE OTHER RELEASED PARTIES.

CAF Participant Code of Conduct (COC)

Challenged Athletes Inc. (DBA Challenged Athletes Foundation) or “CAF” requires that participants conduct themselves in a safe and respectful manner to help maintain a fun and welcoming environment throughout the program/event.

The Code of Conduct is intended to help provide a positive experience. A “participant” includes but is not limited to sponsors, athletes, coaches, volunteers, parent/guardian/spouse and anyone accompanying sponsors/athletes/coaches/volunteers at a CAF sponsored event. All must read and adhere to the Code of Conduct.

Everyone is expected to adhere to the following guidelines:

• Treat each other with respect and consideration. All forms of harassment, discrimination, and bullying are strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated. Harassment is any conduct which could reasonably be anticipated to create or that does create an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment. This includes but is not limited to the following: obscene gestures, unwanted or inappropriate physical contact, use of profanity, jokes, display or circulation of inappropriate written materials or pictures and threats which are derogatory to a person’s gender, race, color, religion, creed, sexual orientation, national origin, ancestry, age, disability, political beliefs, appearance or ethnicity. These guidelines extend to social media when tagging or referencing CAF and any member of our staff or community or otherwise, by either a participant or past participant. Posts that include derogatory, demeaning, inflammatory, offensive, disrespectful, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate comments will not be tolerated. Do not refer to CAF in political or opinionated correspondence or comments.

• Interact in a respectful and professional manner with CAF athletes, grantees, other participants, volunteers, staff and Board members. Treat all CAF constituents with dignity, courtesy, and respect.

• Do not be under the influence of any substance that may impair ability to participate in activities or may put oneself and/or others in danger.

• Do not smoke or use tobacco products of any type, including e-cigarettes at program/event activities.

• Do not use or possess alcohol if under the age of 21 and not while participating in any physical or sport activities and/or assisting athletes with any physical or sport activities.

• Obey all applicable local, state, and federal laws.

• Comply with instructions and safety guidelines from CAF staff and appointed program/event leaders and/or coaches. This includes but is not limited to wearing required protective gear, not behaving in an unsafe manner, not putting oneself or others at risk of physical harm or legal liability, disobeying safety signs and rules.

• Do not knowingly misrepresent oneself as a representative of CAF or member of CAF staff.

• Do not solicit other participants for personal gain.

• Keep all event areas neat and clean and be respectful of the program/event space.

CAF takes violation of the code seriously. Please report any practice or situation that endangers the health, safety, or well-being of yourself or any program participant to a CAF Staff member during an event or send an email to hr@challengedathletes.org immediately following an event.

Participation in a CAF event is a privilege, not a right. CAF reserves the right to refuse registration or admittance to, or remove any person from, any present or future CAF program or event at any time, in its sole discretion, for failure to comply with this Code of Conduct. CAF will not be liable for any costs incurred as a result of a participant’s removal from a program or event. Please note that, while CAF takes all reported concerns seriously, we will use our discretion in determining when and how to respond to reported incidents and may decline to take any further action and/or may direct the participant to other resources for resolution.

I have read the waiver and release and the Participant COC and I understand their contents:

I agree
