These are considered illegal in the UK and are not allowed at our events. 8. As organisers, we are duty-bound to prioritise our resources to deal with genuine first-aid and mechanical issues. Flat e- bike batteries mid-ride are not considered genuine mechanical issues, rather the predictable outcome of poor planning. Riders with flat e-bike batteries are requested to make their own way to the nearest event Feed Station. It should be noted that we may have to wait until the event is finished and/or there are spare resources to facilitate a pick up from these locations. It is therefore suggested that e-bike riders are (1) familiar with their bike’s battery range, and (2) either carry a charged spare battery with them or stash a spare battery at a suitable point on the route in advance. 9. To obey all Highway Code rules. You are requested to ride in single file where appropriate and no more than 2 (two) abreast at any time. Riders are expected to respect the roads, villages and countryside that the events travel through 10. To not drop or leave any litter on any part of the route and to dispose of it responsibly at an appropriate place or bin. Any rider found littering will be disqualified from the event. 11. To ensure that the cycle is suitable standard and state of road worthiness for the conditions, with appropriate lighting should there be the possibility of the rider finishing in darkness. 12. It is recommended that riders carry a basic toolkit, pump (or canister) and at least two spare inner tubes with them. Basic mechanical assistance will be available from the motorcycle marshals and at the feed stations. 13. TRIATHLON BARS OR TIME TRIAL EXTENSIONS are not permitted 14. That any marked route is shown for guidance only and Midland Monster Sportive Event do not insist that you use the route shown. Therefore, if the rider chooses to ride a section, it is entirely their own choice. 15. Absence of these signs does not signal there are no dangers approaching and it is the individual rider’s responsibility to make a decision regarding whether to ride a section or not. The marking of the route does not necessarily indicate that the road is rideable and the participant is deemed to make their own decision about whether to proceed on bike, foot or not at all. 16. Midland reserves the right to shorten or alter the published route at any time. Participants do not have the right to claim a refund if the route is shortened or changed. 17. Each participant will be fully responsible for any fees or costs incurred or arising from an accident either involving or caused by the rider.

In this situation, the rider still accepts the costs and consequences of such actions. 18.
