WARNING: READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. IT INCLUDES A RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND WAIVER OF LEGAL RIGHTS. IF YOU SIGN THIS AGREEMENT YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO SUE RANDONNEURS USA AND OTHER PARTIES.

I understand that this agreement is a release of liability and waiver of legal rights, giving up the right to sue Randonneurs USA and other parties. 


I, IN CONSIDERATION of being permitted to participate in any way in the Pittsburgh Randonneurs' Designated Event, (“Activity”), I hereby acknowledge, agree, attest and represent the following: 

1.  I FULLY UNDERSTAND that: (a) bicycle riding is dangerous and represents an extreme test of a person’s physical and mental limits.

2. I am qualified, in good health, and in proper physical condition to participate in the Activity. I agree and warrant that if, at any time, I believe conditions, including road hazards, to be unsafe or if I am not feeling well, I will immediately discontinue further riding of the Activity. 

3. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, I, ON BEHALF OF MYSELF, MY FAMILY MEMBERS AND DEPENDENTS HEREBY RELEASE, DISCHARGE, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE Randonneurs USA (“RUSA”), the Pittsburgh Randonneurs, Western PA Bicycle Club, Daniel Blumenfeld, the Event Organizer, their respective administrators, directors, agents, officers, members, volunteers, other riders, and owners and lessors of premises on which the Activity takes place, ("RELEASED PARTIES") FROM ALL LIABILITY, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, LOSSES, COSTS OR DAMAGES (HEREAFTER, “CLAIMS”) CAUSED OR ALLEGED TO BE CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, OF THE "RELEASED PARTIES", INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, RESCUE OPERATIONS.  I further agree that if, I, or anyone on my behalf, makes a Claim against any of the Released Parties, I WILL INDEMNIFY, SAVE, AND HOLD HARMLESS EACH OF THE RELEASED PARTIES from any litigation expenses, attorney fees, losses, liability, damages, or costs which any Released Party may incur as the result of such Claim. 

This agreement shall be construed broadly to provide a release and waiver to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law.
