OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT ("AGREEMENT")
IN CONSIDERATION of being permitted to participate in any way in South Jersey
Wheelmen ("Club") sponsored Bicycling Activities ("Activity")
I for myself, my personal representatives, assigns, heirs, and next of kin:
1. ACKNOWLEDGE,
agree, and represent that I understand the nature of Bicycling Activities and
that I am qualified, in good health, and in proper physical condition to participate
in such Activity. I further acknowledge that the Activity will be conducted
over public roads and facilities open to the public during the Activity and
upon which the hazards of travelling are to be expected. I further agree and
warrant that if at any time I believe conditions to be unsafe, I will immediately
discontinue further participation in the Activity.
2. FULLY UNDERSTAND that: (a) BICYCLING ACTIVITIES INVOLVE
RISK AND DANGERS OF SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, INCLUDING PERMANENT DISABILITY,
PARALYSIS
AND DEATH ("RISKS"); (b) these Risks and dangers may be caused by
my own actions, or inactions, the actions or inactions of others participating
in the Activity, the conditions in which the Activity takes place, or THE NEGLIGENCE
OF THE "RELEASEES" NAMED BELOW; (c) there may be OTHER RISKS AND
SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC LOSSES either not known to me or not readily forseeable
at this
time; and I FULLY ACCEPT AND ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS AND ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR
LOSSES, COSTS, AND DAMAGES I incur as a result of my participation in the Activity.
3. HEREBY RELEASE, DISCHARGE, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE the
Club, the LAB, their respective administrators, directors, agents, officers,
members,
volunteers, and employees, other participants, any sponsors, advertisers, and,
if applicable, owners and lessors of premise on which the Activity takes place,
(each considered one of the "RELEASEES" herein) FROM ALL LIABILITY,
CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LOSSES, OR DAMAGES ON MY ACCOUNT CAUSED OR ALLEGED TO BE CAUSED
IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE "RELEASEES" OR OTHERWISE,
INCLUDING NEGLIGENT RESCUE OPERATIONS; AND I FURTHER AGREE that if despite
this
RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
I, or anyone on my behalf, makes a claim against any of the Releasees, I WILL
INDEMNIFY, SAVE AND HOLD HARMLESS EACH OF THE RELEASEES from any litigation
expenses, attorney fees, loses, liability, damage, or cost which any may incur
as the result of such claim.
I HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT, FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS, UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY SIGNING IT, AND HAVE SIGNED FREELY AND WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT OF ASSURANCE OF ANY NATURE AND INTEND IT TO BE A COMPLETE AND UNCONDITIONAL RELEASE OF ALL LIABILITY TO THE GREATEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW AND AGREE THAT IF ANY PORTION OF THIS AGREEMENT IS HELD TO BE INVALID THE BALANCE, NOTWITHSTANDING, SHALL CONTINUE IF FULL FORCE AND EFFECT.
