The police and/or volunteers will ensure the necessary road closures and safety measures are in place.

3.5. Timing can only take place if the timing chip is used correctly and the route specified by the organiser is followed. If split times are missing or the recorded split times appear implausible, the organiser reserves the right to disqualify the participants in question.

Participants agree that the data provided in the registration form, as well as any photographs, film footage and interviews taken of them, may be used and shared in radio, television, books and photomechanical reproductions without any entitlement to remuneration.
